Does a vehicle declared out of service still require annual inspection?

Vehicles that are scrapped do not require annual inspection anymore. As long as you have consistently complied with the annual inspection regulations, you can proceed with the scrapping process. You will need to bring the vehicle's green card, the vehicle's registration certificate, and the owner's ID card. Required materials include: the registration certificate and compulsory traffic insurance (the insurance period should cover the next year). Annual inspection is legally mandated, meaning it is compulsory, and every vehicle on the road must undergo inspection. To facilitate vehicle owners, the government has introduced a six-year exemption policy for new vehicles that meet the six-year inspection requirements, allowing them to skip annual inspections during this period. The purpose of annual inspection is to check: Whether the engine, chassis, body, and auxiliary equipment are clean, intact, and functional; whether the car's paint is uniform and aesthetically pleasing; whether major general components have been replaced and match the initial inspection records. Whether the vehicle's braking performance, turning maneuverability, lights, exhaust pipes, and other safety factors comply with the "Technical Requirements for Safe Operation of Motor Vehicles." Whether the vehicle has been modified, altered, or transformed; whether all records in the vehicle's registration certificate, license plate, and vehicle file match the current condition of the vehicle and whether any changes have been made; whether approval, alteration, or modification procedures have been applied for. Whether the license plate printed on the vehicle, the vehicle registration certificate, and the enlarged license plate characters are damaged or illegible, and whether they need to be replaced.
