Does a 7-year-old car require an annual inspection?
1 Answers
An annual inspection is required. 1. Non-commercial passenger vehicles: New vehicles within 6 years are exempt from on-site inspection but must apply for inspection stickers every two years; eligible private cars registered after September 2012 can enjoy the exemption policy, requiring an annual inspection thereafter. Vehicles aged 6 to 15 years must undergo on-site inspection once a year, while those over 15 years require inspection every six months. 2. Commercial passenger vehicles: Annual inspection is required within the first 5 years; those over 5 years old require inspection every 6 months. 3. Trucks and large/medium non-commercial passenger vehicles: Annual inspection is required within the first 10 years; those over 10 years old require inspection every 6 months.
