The license plate number 30K-999.99 of Hanoi was successfully auctioned for over 75 billion VND in just 30 minutes. This is the highest-priced license plate in an auction ever.
On January 13, the Vietnam Auction Company continued to organize an online auction session with 7,000 license plates for cars, among which the license plate 30K-999.99 attracted a lot of attention from customers. The bidding for this license plate lasted for 30 minutes as regulated, starting at 10:15 am and ending at 10:45 am. In the first minute, a participant placed a bid of over 25 billion VND.
After about 4 minutes, the price increased to over 50 billion VND, and at the end of the session, the price of this special number plate reached over 75 billion VND.
This is the highest amount of money bid for a license plate for a car ever since the auctioning of license plates began on September 15, 2023.
With such a high price, many people have expressed concerns about the ability of the winning bidder to fulfill their financial obligation. Despite the fact that the license plate 30K-999.99 is considered beautiful, the bidding price is exceptionally high.
Previously, according to the published list by the auctioning organization, the highest bid for a license plate so far was the license plate TP.HCM 51K-888.88, which fetched over 32 billion VND.
However, after multiple cancellations and re-auctions, in early November 2023, the special number plate with quintuple 8 digits found its owner who placed a bid of over 15.2 billion VND for it.
According to regulations, the winning bidder of a car license plate must pay the full auction amount within 15 days from the date of the auction result announcement. The deposit amount (40 million VND) will be deducted from the winning bid when the customer fulfills their financial obligation.
Within 12 months, the winning bidder must register the license plate for a car. In the case of deadline expiration, this special license plate will be transferred to the vehicle registration and management system, and the winning bidder will not be reimbursed the auction amount already paid.
