If the car is sold, the original motor vehicle owner can directly apply for updating the index without participating in the lottery. Within 6 months after obtaining the updated index, if the application conditions of the original license plate number are met, the owner can apply to the vehicle management office to use the original license plate number when registering the newly purchased motor vehicle.
If you want to keep the license plate, you need to meet three conditions: 1, apply within six months after handling the transfer registration or cancellation registration; 2. The owner of the motor vehicle has owned the original motor vehicle for more than three years; 3, involving the original motor vehicle road traffic safety violations and traffic accidents. The original license plate is managed by the vehicle management office.
As long as the owner meets the above three conditions, he can successfully keep the license plate of the old car and use it on the newly purchased new car. Friendly reminder to the owner: the reserved license plate can only be used in new cars. If the owner buys a used car, he can't continue to use the old license plate.
