Are Vehicle Inspection Offices Open on Saturdays and Sundays?
2 Answers
Vehicle management offices have varying working hour arrangements in different regions. Here is the relevant information: Working Hours: Generally from Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM to 6:00 PM. Or from Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM (no lunch break). Services Provided: Vehicle management offices are mainly responsible for handling motor vehicle registration, modification, transfer, mortgage, and cancellation, as well as applications for driver's licenses, replacements, renewals, inspections, and other services related to motor vehicles and drivers.
As an experienced driver who frequently drives, I must say that most vehicle inspection places are closed on Saturdays and Sundays. Weekends are typically off days, with DMVs or inspection stations mostly operating from Monday to Friday, such as from 9 AM to 5 PM. For example, once I went on a Saturday, only to find it closed and a long queue of people. Some inspection stations in big cities may open for half a day on Saturday mornings, like from 8 AM to 12 PM, for public convenience, but they are generally closed on Sundays. I recommend calling the local institution or checking the official website for business hours before your inspection to avoid any inconvenience. There can be significant regional differences, with some suburban areas possibly being more flexible, but don’t get your hopes up too much. Booking an appointment early is better to prevent delays in your inspection, which could affect safe driving—this is crucial for ensuring your daily driving legality, so don’t overlook it.
