1 Answers
2021 7-seater SUVs are eligible for 6-year exemption from inspection. Starting from November 20, 2020, 7-seater vehicles have been officially included in the exemption scope. The private vehicle inspection policy is as follows: Inspection schedule and applicable vehicle types: For vehicles under 10 years old: exempt from inspection for the first 6 years, mandatory on-site inspection required in the 6th, 8th and 10 years; annual inspection for vehicles aged 10-15 years; semi-annual inspection for vehicles over 15 years old. Based on the existing policy exempting non-commercial mini-buses with 6 or fewer seats from inspection within 6 years, non-commercial mini-buses with 7-9 seats (excluding minivans) are now included in the exemption scope. Special circumstances not eligible for this policy: New vehicles involved in fatal accidents or illegally modified and penalized within 6 years, or vehicles unregistered for over 4 years are not eligible for this policy.
