How many times does a 2005 vehicle need annual inspection per year?
2 Answers
A 2005 vehicle requires two annual inspections per year. Below is an introduction to the annual inspection for 2005 vehicles: 1. According to the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," non-operational cargo vehicles over 15 years old must undergo inspection every six months. 2. After passing the inspection, the vehicle can be driven normally, but the maximum mileage is limited to 600,000 kilometers. Below is additional information about vehicle annual inspections: 1. Expanded exemption scope for private vehicles and optimized inspection cycles. In addition to the exemption for non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles with fewer than 6 seats within 6 years, non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles with 7 to 9 seats within 6 years are now also exempt. For non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles over 6 years but less than 10 years old, the inspection frequency is adjusted from once per year to once every two years. 2. Electronic annual inspection labels. For vehicles undergoing online inspection, after passing the inspection, the inspection agency will issue a paper certificate of inspection while also notifying the vehicle owner that they can view and download the electronic inspection certificate online.
I've been driving for over 20 years. My 2005 car is now almost 20 years old, and according to regulations, it needs to be inspected twice a year. Vehicles over 15 years old require semi-annual inspections, mainly checking safety components like brakes and lights. Older cars are prone to issues, and annual inspections can help identify potential hazards. It's recommended to book an appointment at an official inspection station in advance to avoid long queues that might affect your travel plans.
