Can a Vehicle Be Inspected in a Different Location? The following is a detailed introduction to the annual inspection of a driver's license: 1. The annual inspection of a driver's license is conducted when renewing the license upon its expiration. The owner can proceed with the inspection up to three months before the expiration date. 2. The annual inspection of a driver's license includes: (1) The handling of road traffic violations and accidents. (2) Physical condition. (3) The scoring of road traffic violations and the participation in study and examination after accumulating 12 points. 3. Drivers holding licenses for large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, or large trucks must report to the traffic management department of the public security authority within thirty days after the end of each scoring cycle for inspection, which means an annual inspection. If there is no record of points within a scoring cycle, the inspection for that cycle is exempted.
As a frequently traveling car owner, I completed my vehicle's annual inspection in another city last month while on a business trip. The whole process was much simpler than I imagined—just went to a locally certified inspection station with my vehicle license, ID card copy, and compulsory traffic insurance policy. The staff at the station were very efficient, checking the lights, brakes, and safety systems, and it was all done in about 20 minutes, with the same cost as back home. The key is to call ahead and confirm whether the inspection station supports out-of-town vehicles, as some smaller places might not be connected to the network. After completion, I received the inspection certificate, saving me the hassle of driving back home specifically for this. A reminder: it's best to avoid holiday peak times when getting your car inspected in another city to prevent long queues and delays, making it hassle-free and avoiding late inspection fines.
