Where to Collect the Green Book for a Full-Payment Car Purchase?
2 Answers
If the car is purchased with full payment, the Green Book can be collected when registering the vehicle at the Vehicle Management Office. The Green Book refers to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate," which is commonly called the Green Book by many car owners due to its green color. Below is an introduction to the Vehicle Registration Certificate: The Vehicle Registration Certificate is the legal proof of vehicle ownership, kept by the vehicle owner and not carried with the vehicle. It is required for any vehicle registration procedures such as transfer or change of ownership, and records the vehicle's relevant information. The "Driving License" and "Vehicle Registration Certificate" are analogous to the vehicle's "ID card" and "property deed."
When I first bought my new car, the dealer told me that the vehicle registration certificate (commonly known as the 'Big Green Book') is obtained from the vehicle management office. After purchasing the car, I had to bring my ID card, the original vehicle qualification certificate, the purchase tax payment certificate, and the car purchase invoice, and personally go to the local vehicle management office to complete the procedures. Once there, I had to queue at the counter first. The staff would inspect the car, take photos, and so on. If everything was in order, they would issue the certificate directly to me. The whole process took about one or two days to complete, which was quite fast, especially since I paid in full without the hassle of loans. This 'Big Green Book' is like the ID card of the vehicle; it's essential for future transfers or selling the car, so it's important to keep it safe and not lose it. It's best to go on a weekday and avoid peak times to save time and avoid long waits.
