Improve the efficiency of circulation to open up the "blockage", Beijing will set up a second-hand car transaction turnover indicator

Recently, the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Commerce, the Beijing Municipal Market Supervision and Administration Bureau, and the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau Public Security Traffic Management Bureau jointly formulated the "Beijing Second-hand Passenger Car Transaction Turnover Indicators Management Measures (Trial)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Administrative Measures"), which will be implemented from April 1, 2022. In accordance with the deployment of the municipal government, in order to optimize the business environment, better ensure the development of the second-hand passenger car circulation industry, and facilitate the turnover process of enterprises in the industry to acquire and sell second-hand cars.

Promote the healthy development and circulation of the industry

The "Administrative Measures" first clarified that the turnover index of second-hand passenger car transactions (hereinafter referred to as "turnover indicators") refers to the indicators used by second-hand car circulation enterprises registered and filed in Beijing to acquire second-hand passenger cars and handle the verification of second-hand car sales invoices under the policy of regulating the number of passenger cars; the turnover indicators do not limit the total amount and implement gratuitous allocation; when second-hand car circulation enterprises use turnover indicators to acquire second-hand passenger cars for transfer registration, the traffic management department of the public security organ is responsible for endorsing the transfer registration matters on the "Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate". Determine the registration number of the motor vehicle, issue the "Motor Vehicle Driving Certificate", and the inspection pass mark, but do not make or issue the number plate.

So who can apply for a turnover indicator? That is, used car circulation enterprises that have been filed with the municipal commerce department and have rented parking spaces in the city's second-hand car trading market can apply for the allocation of turnover indicators. Used car circulation enterprises that have been filed with the municipal commerce department and have more than 20 fixed parking spaces (excluding road parking spaces) outside the trading market can also apply for the allocation of turnover indicators. Families, individuals, public institutions and enterprises that are not engaged in the circulation of second-hand cars cannot apply for turnover indicators.

How many turnover indicators can I apply for? The number of turnover indicators used by second-hand car circulation enterprises at the same time shall not exceed the number of parking spaces rented by enterprises in the trading market or the number of fixed parking spaces used outside the trading market. For example, if an enterprise rents a parking space in a trading market, the enterprise may apply for the use of a turnover indicator at the same time. After the second-hand passenger car that the enterprise will buy using the turnover indicator is sold, the enterprise can apply for the use of a turnover indicator again. If the enterprise completes 10 acquisitions and sales in a year, it actually applies for the use of 10 turnover indicators in that year.

Insiders told the "China Times" reporter that the policy setting of "limited scale and unlimited turnover times" can not only prevent individual enterprises from arbitrarily applying for turnover indicators, parking at will after acquiring second-hand cars, and breeding "zombie car" chaos, but also fully consider the actual situation that enterprises in the second-hand car circulation industry are more frequent in receiving and selling cars, which is conducive to promoting the accelerated circulation and healthy development of the industry.

As for the issue of second-hand cars to be traded on the road, the Administrative Measures clearly point out that after the second-hand passenger cars acquired by the second-hand car circulation enterprises using the turnover indicators have completed the transfer registration, the resident enterprises in the trading market must store the second-hand passenger cars to be traded in the trading market, and the enterprises outside the trading market must store the second-hand passenger cars to be traded in their fixed parking lots and are not allowed to drive on the road. The trading market should strengthen the vehicle access management of the resident enterprises, and the industry association should supervise the enterprises outside the trading market to strengthen the management of vehicle access, and strictly control the second-hand passenger cars to be traded out of the business premises.

In terms of supervision, the trading market should strengthen the vehicle access management of the resident enterprises, and the industry association should supervise the enterprises outside the trading market to strengthen the vehicle access management, and strictly control the second-hand passenger cars to be traded out of the business premises. For those who falsely report parking lot information and drive a second-hand passenger car to be traded in violation of road traffic safety laws and regulations, the acceptance of the application for turnover indicators of relevant enterprises will be suspended for one year.

Open up the blockage to empower the entire industry

Originally, in the second-hand car trading link, the original owner needed to wait until the old car was sold to free up the car purchase indicator, and the car dealer would choose the rental indicator or use the indicator under the personal name to collect the car for convenience. However, the number of personal new car indicators is limited, and the price of rental indicators is also rising, making it inconvenient to circulate second-hand car transactions. This phenomenon will be partially mitigated with the advent of turnover indicators.

Luo Lei, deputy secretary-general of the China Automobile Dealers Association, pointed out in an interview with the China Times reporter, "This move once again releases a good signal for the second-hand car industry, especially the cross-regional circulation of second-hand cars, and the comprehensive cancellation of the second-hand car relocation policy means that second-hand cars can circulate freely nationwide, which is conducive to promoting the healthy development of the second-hand car market and even the entire automobile market." ”

Luo Lei said frankly that changing from "two transfers" to "one transfer" will effectively improve the circulation efficiency of second-hand cars and reduce circulation costs, and also solve the problem of license plate indicators faced by operators in restricted cities when receiving cars.

At present, the number of cars in mainland China has reached 287 million. With the transformation of the mainland automobile market from an incremental market to a stock market, and the proportion of upgrading and purchasing in automobile consumption has gradually increased, the demand and market potential of second-hand car transactions are huge, and it will become one of the main driving forces for the development of the automobile market in the future. From the perspective of the international mature automobile market, the ratio of second-hand car trading volume to new car sales is generally above 1.5:1. Based on this, the mainland is paying more and more attention to the circulation and development of used cars. In addition to the Administrative Measures, more and more policies have been issued to support the mobile trading of used cars, based on this, the used car market is expected to become a new blue ocean for China's automobile consumption. Luo Lei expects that China's used car trading volume will exceed 19 million in 2022, and will launch an impact on 20 million vehicles.

Luo Lei pointed out: "Now the development of second-hand cars belongs to an important part of the automobile consumption chain, the relocation is a 'big blockage' in the entire second-hand car circulation field, and opening up the 'blockage' is also to empower the second-hand car industry and even the entire industrial chain. With the gradual solution of problems such as relocation restrictions, taxes and second-hand car registration, the dividends brought by the policy will gradually be released, and the second-hand car market will soon enter the stage of ecological reconstruction, thus driving the vigorous development of the entire industrial chain. At the same time, the formulation of the "Management Measures" in Beijing has also released a positive signal to the development of the entire industry, and has played a demonstration role in strengthening the development of second-hand car circulation in various places. It is believed that with the increase in the trading volume of the second-hand car market, there will be more and more places to gradually promote the circulation of second-hand cars and improve the management methods for the circulation of second-hand cars, and the "spring" of the second-hand car market will eventually come.
