I'm going to buy a scooter, and my understanding is I need to have it registered.  According to this link, I don't think I will need a license for a scooter, as long as it is electric.

Does anyone know how/where to register bikes in Hefei or any other relevant info?

Electric scooters must be registered.  Take a look at the electric scooters zipping around Hefei, and you will see how the license plate looks like.  I am assuming that you register the electric scooters at a police station.  The small police station on the corner of Jin Zhai Road and Wu Hu Road (south-west corner) was doing them a little while back.  I am not sure if they still are. 

That place was also a place for people to register their mopeds, but I am not sure if mopeds are legal to ride any more.  I keep hearing conflicting reports.

I bought an electric bike today. The people at the shop registered it for me and said that it was the norm, I think. They pretty much just took my name and phone number and filled out a bunch of forms.
