I am from Nanyang, Henan. I have taken a fancy to the BMW 525 Deluxe Edition. I wonder if I can get a license plate in Nanyang when buying a car in Shanghai.

Yes, there is no mandatory requirement from national policy.

The salesperson wants you to hang a sign where you buy the car. There are two purposes: first, you have a task as a salesperson in the store, and you also have other income. Second, manufacturers protect the rights and interests of sellers and carry out regional protection.

You can not put up a sign at the place where you buy the car, but go back to the local area to apply for a license plate. The local government will welcome it, because your purchase tax will be paid to the local financial department.

Another point is, for example, if you don’t list the BMW 525 you bought, they won’t sell it to you. This is the so-called shop bullying. Of course not. If after you buy a car, someone asks you to put a Shanghai local brand on it, then it’s not up to them. If you act a little stronger, no one can do anything to you
