Do small cars need annual inspections every year?
1 Answers
Generally, small cars do not require annual inspections every year. Below are the relevant regulations for small car inspections: 1. 6-year exemption: New passenger cars with 7 seats or fewer (including 7 seats) are exempt from inspections for the first 6 years. After 6 years, they need to be inspected once a year, and after 15 years, they need to be inspected every six months. 2. Regulations for vehicles involved in major accidents: Newly purchased small family cars with 7 seats or fewer (including 7 seats) do not require on-site inspections within the first 6 years, but cars involved in major accidents still need to undergo on-site inspections. 3. No inspection but must obtain relevant labels: Although new cars do not require on-site inspections, they must still obtain the annual inspection sticker and environmental protection inspection compliance sticker from the vehicle management office every two years. To obtain these, bring the vehicle registration certificate and the current valid compulsory traffic insurance policy to the designated window for direct collection, with no fees required.
