Can someone else handle the vehicle inspection for me?

Yes, someone else can handle the vehicle inspection for you. Required documents include the driver's license, vehicle registration certificate, ID card, physical examination certificate, the agent's identity proof, and signatures from both the vehicle driver and the agent. Preparation work: Vehicle drivers can authorize an agent to handle license renewal, replacement, submission of physical condition certificates, extension processing, and cancellation procedures. When applying for these services, the agent must submit their identity proof along with the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form" or physical condition certificate signed by both the driver and the agent. Out-of-town annual inspection: Out-of-town annual inspections are also possible. How to handle an out-of-town annual inspection for a driver's license is a topic of interest for many car owners who frequently drive outside their home region. In mid-2012, Beijing introduced a new policy allowing local car owners to process their driver's license annual inspections through post offices.
I hire someone to handle my annual vehicle inspection every year, and it's incredibly hassle-free. All you need to do is prepare your vehicle license, compulsory insurance policy, ID card copy, and sign a power of attorney to hand over to the agent. They know the ropes and can smoothly navigate processes like vehicle testing and environmental inspections, saving you from long queues at the DMV. Just make sure to check your car’s lights, brakes, etc., in advance and clear any traffic violations beforehand. Last time, I paid a 200-yuan service fee—handed over my car in the morning, and everything was done by the afternoon. Much easier than doing it myself. I’d recommend finding a legitimate agency to avoid scammers.
Last time, my cousin's car inspection was handled by me as a proxy. The key is that the owner must prepare all original documents, such as the driver's license and insurance policy, and then write a written power of attorney with their signature for confirmation. The car itself must also be in good condition—severely worn tires won't pass, and excessive exhaust emissions can also be problematic. The proxy will drive the car for the inspection, but you'll need to cover the fuel cost and service fee. I remember once during a proxy inspection, the brake light was faulty, and we had to replace the bulb on the spot for 50 yuan to pass. It's best to book the proxy service two days in advance, especially during the peak period at the end of the year when queues are long. Nowadays, many repair shops offer this service—just find a reliable one.
