Vehicle Owners Get Two Months to Reserve Fancy Registration Numbers or Face Auto-Assignment

1 source

India's Transport Department announced that vehicle owners must reserve a special registration number within two months of receiving temporary registration, or a random regular number will be automatically assigned. Previously, temporary registration was valid for only 30 days, but the revised procedure extends the window for fancy number reservations to two months. This change aims to give owners more time to secure personalized plates before the system defaults to standard registration.

The Transport Department has implemented a revised procedure for vehicle registration under the VAHAN system, extending the timeline for owners to reserve special registration numbers. Vehicle owners now have two months from the date of temporary registration issuance to reserve a fancy number, compared to the previous 30-day validity period for temporary registration. If no reservation is made within this two-month window, the VAHAN system will automatically generate and assign a regular registration number. The department has advised vehicle owners who expressed interest in obtaining fancy numbers at the time of purchase but have not yet completed the reservation process to do so promptly. This policy change appears designed to balance owner preferences for personalized plates with administrative efficiency by setting a clear deadline after which automatic assignment occurs.
