How many years can a 2016 commercial-to-private vehicle be driven?

Check the mandatory scrapping time on the vehicle license. The scrapping time for commercial vehicles will not change because they are converted to private use. For example, a taxi can be driven for 8 years. If it is converted to private use after 6 years, it can only be driven for another 2 years. Once the scrapping time is reached, the vehicle cannot pass the annual inspection. The new national vehicle scrapping standards are as follows: 9 seats and below: Non-commercial passenger vehicles with 9 seats or fewer (including sedans and off-road vehicles) can be used for 15 years. If the vehicle meets the scrapping standards but the owner wishes to continue using it, no approval is required. After passing the inspection, the vehicle can be used for an extended period, with two annual inspections per year. After 20 years, from the 21st year onwards, four annual inspections are required per year. Above 9 seats: Tourist passenger vehicles and non-commercial passenger vehicles with more than 9 seats can be used for 10 years. If the vehicle meets the scrapping standards and is converted from commercial to private use, the commercial vehicle lifespan still applies. Once a vehicle has been registered as commercial, it will always be calculated based on the commercial vehicle lifespan.
