Currently, the vehicle annual inspection sticker does not need to be displayed on the windshield, as the electronic version can be used directly. Electronic inspection exemption label: For vehicles exempt from inspection within 6 years, you can directly apply for the electronic inspection certificate online. For vehicles still within the valid inspection period, the traffic management department will uniformly generate electronic inspection certificates, which vehicle owners can download and use online. Vehicle annual inspection: Vehicle annual inspection is a mandatory test for all vehicles with official license plates and registration certificates, mainly aimed at eliminating potential safety hazards and ensuring proper vehicle maintenance.

Since the policy update, I've noticed that many places no longer require the annual inspection sticker. In 2020, the government introduced electronic annual inspections, allowing drivers to display the electronic mark via mobile apps like 12123. During vehicle checks, you can simply show it directly, eliminating the hassle of sticking it on the windshield. Having driven for over a decade, I find this change incredibly convenient—no more worries about residue from removing stickers or obstructed views. Now, with full digitization, driving is safer. However, some older vehicles or smaller localities might still have requirements, so it's advisable for car owners to regularly check the app to stay updated. Times are progressing, and this digital approach reduces paper waste and enhances efficiency, making adaptation quick and easy.

I just bought a car last month and found out that the annual inspection sticker is no longer needed! Everything is now handled through mobile apps like the 12123 software, which can display the electronic version of the sticker. Traffic police can simply scan it during inspections. This saves the hassle of buying stickers and manually pasting them, making the windshield much cleaner. I think this is especially user-friendly for new drivers—no more worries about crooked application or forgetting to replace the sticker. The policy has improved a lot, promoting electronic stickers to avoid environmental pollution, making driving easier in the future. Everyone should still download the official app as a backup, just in case.

Technology is advancing so fast that I now check vehicle inspection information directly on the 12123 app, with the e-sticker displayed on my phone—no need for physical decals anymore. This saves time and is eco-friendly by reducing plastic and paper usage. I remember just a few years ago having to stick multiple decals densely on the windshield, but now everything is digitized, making the process much simpler. If you change cars or transfer registration, the app updates automatically, which is super convenient. Overall, this transition is part of modern traffic management and deserves widespread adoption. Just keep up with the trend.

From an environmental perspective, not having to display the annual inspection sticker is a positive change, as the government has promoted electronic verification via apps—everything can now be handled directly through the 12123 platform. In the past, accumulated stickers created waste pollution, but digitization has reduced resource waste. I also feel the windshield looks cleaner now. Implementation varies by region, but the mainstream trend is paperless. Vehicle owners should regularly check app notifications. In the long run, such policies promote green mobility, and we simply need to adapt to the new approach. Simple and practical is best.

During my daily commute, I noticed that the annual inspection stickers are no longer required to be displayed, and the switch to electronic management has made life much more convenient. Now, digital badges can be obtained through mobile apps like 12123, and traffic police can instantly check the information with a quick scan during roadside inspections. This eliminates the hassle of traditional stickers falling off or yellowing over time and provides a clearer driving view. I recommend that car owners develop the habit of using these apps, as it enhances driving safety. However, for older vehicles, it's best to verify local policies. Overall, this innovation simplifies the annual inspection process, and I fully support it.
