Note for vehicles registered with 5-digit license plates when changing to identification license plates

Specifically, if a vehicle has registered a 5-digit license plate before August 15, 2023 and has not completed the revocation procedure, that 5-digit license plate will be determined as the vehicle owner's identification license plate. If the vehicle owner has revoked it before August 15, 2023, that license plate will be transferred to the license plate warehouse to be issued a license plate according to regulations.

5-digit license plates with the symbols "LD", "DA", "MĐ", "R" are still allowed to participate in traffic, even when changing or re-issuing the license plate, except in cases where the vehicle owner needs to change the license plate according to the provisions of Circular 24/2023/TT-BCA.

Vehicles that have been registered with 3 or 4-digit license plates are allowed to continue to participate in traffic, except in cases where the vehicle owner needs to change to a new identification license plate or when the vehicle owner carries out procedures to issue and change the vehicle registration certificate, issue and change the license plate, reissue the vehicle registration certificate, reissue the license plate or register to transfer the name or move the vehicle according to the provisions of Circular 24/2023/TT-BCA, then the 3 or 4-digit license plate will be revoked and changed to a new identification license plate according to the regulations.

For commune-level police assigned to register motorbikes before August 15, 2023, they will continue to register vehicles according to the provisions of Circular 24/2023/TT-BCA.

Thus, for vehicles registered with 5-digit license plates before August 15, 2023 but have not completed the revocation procedure, that license plate will be determined as the vehicle owner's identification license plate.

In addition, vehicle owners must comply with the provisions of the law on vehicle registration. Carry out vehicle registration procedures on the public service portal, provide and declare honestly, fully and accurately information on vehicle registration regulations.
