How many times does a 2003 vehicle need to be inspected annually?
1 Answers
2 times. According to the vehicle registration time, new vehicles are inspected every 2 years within the first 5 years, every 1 year after exceeding 5 years, and every 6 months after exceeding 15 years. This new standard for motor vehicle inspection applies to vehicles registered after 2009 (specific start and end times may vary by region as determined by local provincial traffic police departments). New vehicles registered within the specified time frame are exempt from inspection for the first 6 years, but must provide insurance and an annual inspection form every 2 years to obtain a new inspection sticker. After 6 years, inspections are required once a year. Below is relevant information: 1. Out-of-area entrusted annual inspection: The procedure for an out-of-area entrusted annual inspection requires the owner to first apply to the original registration location before the annual inspection can be conducted, and an application must be submitted to the original registration vehicle management office every year. 2. Legal provisions: According to Article 16 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law": Motor vehicles shall undergo safety technical inspections according to the following periods from the date of registration: (1) Passenger vehicles for operational use shall be inspected once a year within 5 years; after exceeding 5 years, once every 6 months. (2) Trucks and large or medium-sized non-operational passenger vehicles shall be inspected once a year within 10 years; after exceeding 10 years, once every 6 months. (3) Small and mini non-operational passenger vehicles shall be inspected once every 2 years within 6 years; after exceeding 6 years, once a year; after exceeding 15 years, once every 6 months.
