Do I need to get an annual inspection certificate for a newly purchased car?
2 Answers
New cars are inspected every 2 years, and an inspection certificate is issued. No online inspection is required within the first 6 years. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Passenger vehicles for commercial use must be inspected once a year within the first 5 years; after 5 years, they must be inspected every 6 months. 2. Trucks and large or medium-sized non-commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected once a year within the first 10 years; after 10 years, they must be inspected every 6 months. 3. Small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected every 2 years within the first 6 years; after 6 years, they must be inspected once a year; after 15 years, they must be inspected every 6 months. 4. Motorcycles must be inspected every 2 years within the first 4 years; after 4 years, they must be inspected once a year. 5. Tractors and other motor vehicles must be inspected once a year.
I just bought a new car and I'm so excited! In most places, new cars don't require an annual inspection certificate every year. For example, in China, non-commercial private cars only need to undergo an on-site inspection once every 2 years within the first 6 years after initial registration. This policy is designed to make things easier for car owners, as new cars have stable performance and don't need frequent check-ups. However, it's important to keep track of the first inspection date to avoid missing it and getting fined. New cars have high safety ratings and excellent emissions, but it's still necessary to regularly check the lights, brakes, and tires to maintain optimal condition. When purchasing the car, the 4S dealership can help remind you of the inspection schedule, and during regular maintenance, pay attention to any warning lights. In the long run, new cars are hassle-free and cost-effective, but it's essential to develop good maintenance habits.
