License plates are managed by identification code.

On the morning of June 27, the National Assembly passed the Law on Road Traffic Order and Safety. One of the new points in the Law is that license plates are managed by identification codes. This point is stated in Article 36, regulations on license plates.

"Vehicle license plates are issued and managed according to the identification code of the vehicle owner, whether an individual or organization; in case the organization does not have an identification code, it will be managed according to the tax code, establishment decision or equivalent document," Clause 3, Article 36 states.

Point b, Clause 3, Article 36 stipulates: In case the vehicle has expired, is damaged and cannot be used, or the vehicle ownership is transferred, the vehicle owner is allowed to retain the license plate number for a period of 5 years to register another vehicle under his/her ownership; after the above period, the license plate number will be revoked by the vehicle registration authority, entered into the license plate warehouse for registration, and issued to another organization or individual, except in cases of transfer, exchange, donation, or inheritance of the vehicle associated with the auctioned license plate number;

In case the vehicle owner changes information about headquarters, permanent residence or temporary residence, the vehicle registration number will be retained.
