Does 'Inspection Exemption Service Completed' Mean Success?

Displaying 'Service Completed' when applying for the inspection exemption mark indicates a successful application. Inspection Exemption Service: Motor vehicle inspection exemption service refers to the exemption from online vehicle inspection. The new vehicle inspection policy exempts small private cars within 6 years from the biennial on-site inspection. Points to Note When Applying for Inspection Exemption Service: Before processing the service, the vehicle owner must settle any traffic violations or accidents. The information provided by the owner must be accurate and truthful; otherwise, the service cannot be processed. When applying for the annual inspection, the owner must provide a valid compulsory traffic insurance policy; commercial insurance alone is not sufficient. For exempted vehicles undergoing annual inspection in a different location, an out-of-area annual inspection authorization must be applied for, and the vehicle still needs to pass the inspection line.
I've handled quite a few vehicle annual inspection matters for others. The 'Exemption Service Completed' notification is most commonly seen on the Traffic Management 12123 app, meaning the system has processed your submitted exemption application. But this isn't the final result—you must check the status in the 'Online Progress' section, and only when you see 'Annual Inspection Approved' does it truly count. I've seen cases where people assumed everything was done after clicking the completion notice, only to be stopped by traffic police the next day because unpaid violations actually blocked the inspection. Three crucial reminders: 1) Clear all traffic violations 2) Ensure insurance is valid 3) The vehicle must qualify for the six-year exemption policy. Missing any single requirement will cause failure. I recommend checking the final approval status in the Online Progress section immediately.
Seeing you ask about the status of the exemption inspection service reminds me of the same prompt popping up on my phone during my vehicle inspection last year. 'Business completed' in the DMV system roughly means 'we've processed your materials,' but whether it's successful depends on the backend verification results. I once suffered a setback, thinking everything was done, only to find the status changed to 'verification failed' the next day. The key is to check your vehicle's conditions: Has it been modified? Is it between two and six years old? Has the compulsory traffic insurance been continuously paid? I suggest you immediately verify the validity of your electronic insurance policy and the vehicle registration date. Also, if there are any unresolved violation records on the 12123 platform, it could block the process. Don't wait for the SMS notification; directly check the online progress to keep an eye on the final approval result.
