1 Answers
As of now, the biannual inspection has not been canceled. According to the relevant regulations on vehicle annual inspections, non-commercial vehicles with fewer than 6 seats are exempt from annual inspections for the first 6 years, require an annual inspection after 6 years, and a biannual inspection after 15 years. Below are the specific details regarding the biannual inspection after 15 years: Vehicle Inspection Periods: Commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected annually within 5 years; after 5 years, every 6 months; small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected biennially within 6 years; after 6 years, annually; after 15 years, every 6 months; trucks and medium/large non-commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected annually within 10 years, and every 6 months after 10 years; motorcycles and other motor vehicles must be inspected annually. Documents Required for Vehicle Inspection: Vehicle license: both original and copy must be complete; third-party liability insurance policy valid for 1 year and within the validity period. For installment payments without the original policy, provide a copy of the policy (stamped by the insurance company), insurance card, and an explanation; identity proof and its copy. Note that both original and copy are required, and the ID copy should be neatly trimmed along the edges. For company vehicles, the agent's identity proof is required.
