When can I change the license plate in China?

It does not specify when it will be replaced.

However, recently, on the website of the State Patent Office, we obtained a set of brand-new patent drawings of license plate style declared by the Traffic Management Research Institute of the Ministry of Public Security, including "small car license plate" and "temporary driving license plate".

This means that China will adopt a new generation of license plates, while the existing fuel license plates with blue background and white characters and new energy license plates with gradual green will be eliminated.

The brand-new small car number plate has two sets of patents. One set adopts the blue gradient style, which looks a bit like the design of the new energy car number plate, and the other set adopts the black letter style with a dark blue belt at the bottom.

The characteristics of these two sets of license plates are the same, with the letters F, Y and G added, which correspond to blue, yellow and red respectively. As for the purpose of these three letters, there is no answer yet. In addition, they have one more digit than the existing license plates.

At present, the license plate we use is model 92, which has been used nationwide since 1994. But then Beijing, Shenzhen, Tianjin and Hangzhou all used the 2002 license plate, but the time was very short. Later, if it didn't spread widely, it would go away. So the 92 license plate has been used until now.

In addition, in 20 16, in order to better distinguish new energy vehicles and implement differentiated management (such as exemption from restrictions), China launched a special license plate for new energy vehicles, which is a gradual green license plate.
