Can I get my car inspected without an ID card?

It is possible to have your vehicle inspected without an ID card. The following preparations should be made before the annual inspection: 1. Check if the vehicle has any traffic violation records. If there are any, go to the traffic police station to pay the fines and inquire about the violations. 2. It is advisable to go for the annual inspection as early as possible, as many vehicle owners find out during the inspection that their vehicles have outstanding violations, which prevents them from passing the inspection. 3. It is better to get the inspection done early in the month rather than later, as inspections are usually faster at the beginning of the month. The materials required for the annual vehicle inspection are as follows: 1. Small and micro non-operational passenger vehicles must be inspected every 2 years within the first 6 years. 2. After 6 years, the vehicle must be inspected annually. After 15 years, the vehicle must be inspected twice a year. The exhaust emission test is conducted along with the annual inspection, and a 'Yellow/Green Label' with a one-year validity period is issued.

I remember last week when I went to the vehicle inspection station myself, I happened to forget my ID card. To be honest, I was quite nervous because I thought it was a mandatory requirement. When I got there, the staff asked me to show my driver's license and said it could also serve as proof of identity since it has a photo and personal information. The whole process took about half an hour before everything was sorted out. Afterwards, I asked about it, and they said it’s best to bring the original ID card because the inspection station needs it to confirm the owner’s information and prevent issues like impersonation. Additionally, the vehicle annual inspection also requires the vehicle registration certificate and compulsory traffic insurance policy. Checking these things in advance can save a lot of time. The lesson I learned is to always carry my documents with me, even if I’m in a hurry.
