Does a vehicle exempt from inspection for 6 years require an annual inspection in the 6th year?
1 Answers
Vehicles exempt from inspection within 6 years do not include the 6th year. Vehicles in their 6th year require on-site inspection during the annual review. For new vehicles still within 6 years, they can be exempt from inspection twice (requiring an inspection mark application every two years without the vehicle undergoing on-site inspection). Additionally, vehicle annual inspections can generally be conducted three months in advance, so it's advisable not to wait until the last week to perform the annual inspection to avoid expiration. Regular family vehicles (models with fewer than 7 seats, not including 7-seaters) enjoy "exemption from annual inspection within 6 years," but still need to apply for an annual inspection pass mark every two years. After 6 years, an annual inspection is required. Below is relevant information about vehicle inspection exemption: Inspection Exemption Regulations: Vehicle inspection exemption refers to vehicles that meet the exemption conditions within 6 years being exempt from the on-site inspection process, only requiring a regular application for an inspection mark every two years, which must be affixed to the vehicle as per regulations. Essentially, it exempts the vehicle from on-site inspection. As long as the vehicle meets the national policy conditions, it no longer requires on-site inspection, and the owner can directly apply to the traffic management department for the inspection mark. Materials Required for Inspection Exemption: The vehicle owner must personally bring the vehicle's driving license (original and copy), the ID card of the vehicle owner, the compulsory traffic insurance policy of the vehicle, and proof of vehicle and vessel tax payment or exemption to process the application. Advance Time for Inspection Exemption: It can be done three months in advance, including the month of expiration, but it should not span across years. According to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" (Order No. 102 of the Ministry of Public Security), vehicle owners can apply for an inspection pass mark at the vehicle management office of the registration location three months before the expiration of the motor vehicle inspection validity period.
