The 4S shop in Beijing to lower the threshold took the opportunity to let Beijingers buy foreign cards.
On April 20 and 21, this newspaper reported the sudden increase in the sale of foreign license plates in the suburbs. The Beijing Youth Daily reporter found through interviews that the "Beijing Traffic Police" APP was launched at the end of May last year, and the Beijing Pass can be processed online. This original intention is to facilitate the people, but it has become a gimmick for many 4S shops to handle foreign license plates and sell cars at high prices. "The Beijing Pass is directly handled online, and there are no restrictions on foreign licenses except during peak hours and some main roads." Some auto 4S shop salespeople admit that since they went to Beijing Securities Network last year, there have been many local people who can’t shake the number to run Hebei licenses and other foreign licenses. Some 4S stores even promised to help get foreign licenses, and the agency price ranged from thousands to tens of thousands.
There are fewer obstacles to the long-term use of foreign licenses by the network office in Beijing
In the previous interview, the reporter of Beiqing Daily learned that there were a lot of local car owners who bought vehicles with foreign licenses in recent years. Among them, the Beijing Pass can be processed online from May last year, so that some locals who can’t shake the Beijing number plate will settle for the second best and start to consider buying foreign number plates.
Ms. Shi, a local who opened a license in Hebei, told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that in the past, when driving a foreign license car, she had to go to the checkpoint at the junction of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei to apply for a Beijing permit. Later, the validity period of the Beijing permit became 7 days. If the tail number was restricted, it was even necessary to take a bus to apply for a Beijing permit. If the permanent residents in Beijing drive foreign cars for a long time, the maneuverability is getting smaller and smaller.
However, since May 26 last year, the "Beijing Traffic Police" mobile APP has been put into trial operation, and the Beijing Pass can be handled directly on the APP. According to reports, more than 300,000 users downloaded it on the day of launch, and successfully handled 17,800 Beijing-based certificates, and handled 250,000 only one week after launch.
This original intention is to facilitate the people, and also let Ms. Shi, who has been unable to shake the number for a long time, see the feasibility of using the foreign number plate for a long time in Beijing. "It is really convenient to apply for the Beijing Pass now. You can click on it directly with your mobile phone." Ms. Shi told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that her current Hebei license car, as long as it is not in the morning and evening rush hours, does not go to Chang ‘an Street and the Second Ring Road, and it is used as a car in Beijing at ordinary times, and there is no obstacle at all.
4S stores seize business opportunities to encourage local people to buy foreign licenses.
The convenience of online access to Beijing permits also allows some 4S stores to see business opportunities. Some 4S shops even use this as a gimmick to help and even encourage local people to buy vehicles with foreign number plates.
Last year, the "Beijing Pass" can be handled and operated through the APP, which is much more convenient than before. As a result, it is more convenient for car owners with foreign licenses to drive in Beijing. A staff member of a domestic brand store said that since he entered the Beijing Securities Network Office last year, there have indeed been more car owners who have applied for Hebei licenses and other foreign licenses. He just helped a customer to apply for a Hebei license these days. "There are a lot of Hebei licenses running on Beijing Road now, and it is also very convenient to enter Beijing. It is also convenient to drive by yourself, but there are some restrictions during the peak period." He will also advise customers who need it to do it as soon as possible if they want to do it, because with the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, next to Beijing, "the license plate is so valuable, it will definitely not always be open to buy it. It is possible that relevant policies will be issued, and it will be difficult to get up at that time. Now many customers in Hebei are also rushing to buy a car, because if the policy is really out, the existing license will appreciate. "
During the interview, a staff member of a German brand 4S shop also told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that it would take about ten days to help run the Langfang license for 11,000 yuan, which can be delivered together with the new car. "Last year as long as three or five thousand can do a good job. Nowadays, many people have gone to buy foreign licenses. Recently, the management has been stricter, especially in the surrounding areas of Beijing, especially those with Beijing hukou. It may become more and more difficult to apply for foreign licenses in the future. "
A salesperson can get a foreign number plate for a week by acting as a residence permit.
The staff of a 4S shop of a domestic brand said that if you want to get a Langfang license, you need to hold a local residence permit before you can get it. If citizens work and live in Beijing, it is naturally difficult to hold a Langfang residence permit, so it is not difficult to handle it. They can help to get a foreign license. After I pick up the car, they are responsible for completing the whole process, including applying for a residence permit. After completion, they will inform me to drive to the place where I want to get a license, check the car and get a license. It takes about a week from picking up the car to completing it. In terms of licenses, licenses in Shandong and Inner Mongolia were relatively easy to handle in the past, but now I don’t know if they can be handled. Now there are more licenses for Hebei, which may be close to Beijing, so it is more convenient to handle. In terms of price, for example, he said that it costs 5,000 yuan to run a license in Shijiazhuang and 8,000 yuan to run a license in Baoding. He concluded that "the closer to Beijing, the more difficult it is, so it is more expensive". In terms of price, the staff of another 4S shop also revealed that most of the car owners who used to apply for foreign licenses bought models of 200,000 yuan or more. "It is thousands of dollars to get a license. If you buy a car with tens of thousands of yuan, it doesn’t feel very cost-effective."

The net office has not seen the threshold for entering Beijing. The reporter runs four cars a day.
According to the regulations, when applying for the Beijing Pass through the APP, the foreign passenger car applicant only needs to fill in the driver, the vehicle entering Beijing and related information, and upload photos of relevant documents. After the background audit of the system is completed, the applicant will be informed of the audit results in the form of APP message. Drivers can apply online one to four days in advance, and after successful application, they will get an electronic entry permit with a QR code.
The reporter of Beiqing Daily tried to use the "Beijing Traffic Police" APP to apply for a private car with a Zhejiang license. After downloading the APP in the app store, the reporter completed the account registration with his mobile phone number. Then, click "Apply for Beijing Pass" at the top left of the main page to enter the processing page. Click "Add Vehicle", select the vehicle type of the vehicle, fill in the vehicle number plate and engine number, and complete the filing of the basic information of the vehicle. Then click the "Apply" button, enter the brand model and registration date of the vehicle, upload the vehicle driving license, the front photo of the vehicle, the driver’s driving license and the front photo of my ID card, and finally select the time to enter Beijing, the districts and counties in Beijing and the expressway, and then click Submit.
As the first use is still relatively unfamiliar, the reporter spent about 20 minutes when applying for the first time. Subsequently, the reporter tested two vehicles with Guangdong license plates and one with Fujian license plates respectively. After proficiency, the application process of each vehicle was within five minutes, and it was necessary to wait for review after submitting the application. The above four vehicles with foreign license plates have never had a permit to enter Beijing, and there is no record of entering Beijing.
The reporter of Beiqing Daily found that the approval time of four vehicles was different. The fastest one successfully obtained the certificate in less than 2 hours after the application, and the longest one only took about 7 hours. All the above vehicles successfully obtained the Beijing Pass on the day of application. The electronic version of the Beijing Pass is directly saved on the reporter’s mobile APP, and its effect is the same as that of the entity’s Beijing Pass. The electronic Beijing Pass also provides a special link for printing, which can print a paper version of the Beijing Pass, but it is not mandatory. If the road police come to ask, they can directly show the electronic version of the Beijing Pass.

There are fewer and fewer people who apply for Beijing Pass at checkpoints.
Compared with the situation that there was a long queue to run the Beijing Pass, the window acceptance of the checkpoint at the intersection of Beijing has been diverted by the network to run the Beijing Pass.
At 1 pm on April 20, the reporter of Beiqing Daily came to the Dawangwu checkpoint in Pinggu, and several large trucks were passing. In a room under construction on the edge, a middle-aged man was at the counter to apply for a permit to enter Beijing. In less than a minute, he successfully got a permit to enter Beijing with a seven-day pass next week. "It’s very simple. Just take your driver’s license, driving book, ID card, and the insurance label and environmental protection label of the car." As described by the middle-aged driver who drives a car with Hebei license plate, it is easy to apply for a Beijing permit on the spot.
At noon, after accepting this entry permit, the staff prepared for a nap in the chair. In the next 20 minutes, no one came here to apply for a Beijing permit. "Now you can do it on your mobile phone. It’s very convenient for you to scan the QR code on the poster posted here and press it." The poster pointed by the staff member is printed with the description of the "Beijing Traffic Police" APP.
According to some insiders, it can be seen that online handling of the Beijing Pass is a policy of benefiting the people, eliminating the trouble of long queues of vehicles from other places. However, it does make local people find a shortcut to use foreign cars for a long time, and the profit-oriented 4S shop has taken advantage of it, which is not conducive to Beijing’s general trend of controlling the number and intensity of motor vehicles.
