Does a car within ten years need inspection this year if it was inspected last year?
2 Answers
A car within ten years that was inspected last year does not need inspection this year. Case 1: If the car is still within 6 years, it can be exempted from inspection twice (every two years, you need to apply for an inspection mark, but the car does not need to undergo on-site testing). At the 6th and 8th years, the car must undergo on-site testing. Case 2: If the car is within the 6-10 year range, a 2012 car needs to consult the vehicle management office to see if it is exempt from on-site testing in the 9th year next year. A 2013 car will be in its 8th year next year and must undergo on-site testing. A 2014 car will be in its 7th year next year, and you need to consult the vehicle management office to see if it is exempt from on-site testing. Case 3: For private cars over 10 years old, the original inspection cycle still applies: 10-15 years, inspect once a year; over 15 years, inspect every six months.
My ten-year-old car just passed inspection last year, does it need to be inspected again this year? Actually, it depends on the exact age of the vehicle. For cars within six years of age, they are exempt from on-site inspection for the first six years, only requiring an online application for an inspection sticker every two years. If you applied for the sticker last year, you generally don't need to worry about it this year, just renew it two years later. If the car underwent on-site inspection at the sixth, eighth, or tenth year, the inspection frequency is every two years, so if it was inspected last year, you probably don't need to go again this year, but make sure to calculate whether the car's age has reached a new stage this year. The car's age is calculated from the date of registration. My neighbor's old car was fined for missing the deadline, so I remind you to check the date on the vehicle registration certificate, in case the car has just turned ten and needs annual inspections. Regular maintenance of lights and brakes can reduce inspection hassles and avoid unnecessary expenses from last-minute issues.
