Will scratches on a new car without license plates affect the registration process?
1 Answers
If the vehicle has only been slightly scratched with no deformation or modifications to its appearance, it generally will not affect the registration process. This is because the inspection only involves photographing the vehicle identification number (VIN), engine number, and a full-body photo. However, if the new car is severely damaged, such as deformed front or rear bumpers, it may affect the registration. Documents required for new car registration: the owner's ID card and a copy, a local residence permit for non-local residents, the third copy of the purchase invoice (tax declaration copy), the original and a copy of the vehicle certificate, and for imported vehicles (whether standard imports or parallel imports), customs clearance documents, inspection certificates, and tax declaration forms are also needed. How to deal with scratches on a car: For minor scratches, you can use spray paint or apply a color-changing film for repair. Such repairs generally have minimal impact on the vehicle. For more severe scratches, sheet metal repair may be required. After purchasing a new car, you need to go through several procedures, including purchasing insurance, paying the purchase tax, vehicle inspection, and selecting a license plate number. Among these, purchasing insurance can be done simultaneously during the car purchase process.
