Can out-of-town license plates undergo local annual inspection?

Out-of-town license plates can undergo local annual inspection. The regulations for local annual inspection of out-of-town license plates are as follows: 1. Non-operational small passenger vehicles do not require on-site annual inspection within the first six years. However, owners still need to provide proof of compulsory traffic accident insurance, vehicle and vessel tax payment or exemption certificate, and after handling traffic violations and accidents, they can directly apply to the public security traffic management department for the inspection label. (During this period, the vehicle must not have been involved in any traffic accidents resulting in casualties.) After six years, on-site annual inspection is required. Trucks, vans, and company-registered vehicles are not covered by the new regulations. 2. For non-operational small passenger vehicles, inspections are required every two years for the first six years, and annually from the 7th to the 15th year. For non-operational medium and large vehicles and trucks, inspections are required annually for the first 10 years, and every six months from the 11th year onwards. For operational vehicles, inspections are required annually for the first five years, and every six months from the 6th year onwards. For motorcycles, inspections are required every two years for the first four years, and annually from the 5th year onwards.

I'm a seasoned driver with over a decade of experience. I remember a few years ago when my car had out-of-province license plates and needed an annual inspection locally, which was indeed possible at that time. According to the new policy from the Ministry of Public Security, any vehicle can now undergo an out-of-region annual inspection at its current location without having to return to the place of registration. Last year, I handled this at the local DMV by bringing my ID card, vehicle registration, and driver's license, and I even scheduled an appointment in advance via an app. The whole process was very convenient. The staff checked the lights, brakes, and other components, reminding me to address any traffic violations and ensure all fines were paid. Additionally, I recommend paying attention to headlights, tire wear, etc., during regular maintenance, as these can affect the annual inspection pass rate. If there are minor issues with the car, fixing them in advance can save a lot of hassle. In short, there's no problem getting an out-of-province licensed car inspected locally—just go ahead with confidence.

I just bought a car not long ago, and my car has an out-of-town license plate. The biggest headache was the annual inspection. Later, I checked many posts online and found out that it can actually be done locally. My friend had his car inspected in another city last year, and the process was quite simple. You just need to bring basic documents like your ID and vehicle registration to the local DMV or inspection station. I tried it once, and it was indeed quick. I made an online appointment first to avoid long queues. They mainly check the vehicle's safety features, such as seat belts and lighting functions. I also learned that it's important to clear any traffic violations beforehand, or it could cause delays. By the way, if you're worried about wasting time, you can ask the mechanics at repair shops—some places offer proxy inspection services for an extra fee. Anyway, don’t worry. With the current policy relaxation, getting a local annual inspection is a breeze.

From a regulatory perspective, it is entirely feasible for out-of-town license plates to undergo annual inspection locally. The Ministry of Public Security has implemented cross-regional handling precisely to facilitate vehicle owners. You need to prepare copies of your ID card, the original vehicle registration certificate, and a valid insurance policy to bring to the designated inspection site. I've seen many people go through this process—the basic steps involve scheduling an appointment, on-site vehicle inspection for safety performance items like the braking system, and receiving the certificate immediately if no issues are found. Make sure all traffic violations are cleared; otherwise, you'll have to return to the original registration location to resolve them. Additionally, it's advisable to visit a car service center a few days in advance for a pre-inspection to check for any minor faults. Such procedures are increasingly being simplified to save vehicle owners time and effort.
