When will the vehicle title be issued?

When purchasing a car with full payment, the vehicle title will be issued to you during the license plate registration process. Below is relevant information: 1. Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate: The vehicle title, officially known as the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate,' serves as the household registration document for a car. During second-hand transactions, this green book must be handed over to the new owner. If the title is considered the car's identity proof, then the small book is the tax payment certificate, which is only issued after all taxes have been paid. 2. Notes: The 'Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate' is the vehicle's household registration, while the driving license is its ID card. During second-hand car transactions, the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate' must be given to the new owner. Additionally, all purchase-related documents should be kept safe, such as invoices, vehicle qualification certificates, maintenance cards, etc., as these may be needed later.
I just bought a new car last year, and the whole process was quite fast. The vehicle registration certificate—that big booklet—was basically available right after getting the license plate. I remember that when we went to the DMV to complete the procedures, everything was done in one go: vehicle inspection, selecting a plate number, and payment. The staff printed it out for me on the spot. However, some friends told me that in second-tier cities, it might take a day or two because of the slower processing due to the large number of people. Once you get this booklet, keep it safe and don’t misplace it—you’ll need it for selling the car, buying insurance, and other transactions. If you lose it, getting a replacement is quite troublesome, requiring another trip to the DMV with the necessary documents. In short, completing the procedures early is the most hassle-free.
