How Many Years Does a 6-Seater Vehicle Need to Undergo Annual Inspection?

[SanClayton]

A 6-seater vehicle requires its first on-site inspection in the 7th year. The scope of the 6-year exemption and the process for vehicle annual inspection are as follows: Scope of the 6-year exemption: According to the "Opinions on Strengthening and Improving Motor Vehicle Inspection Work" issued by the Ministry of Public Security and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection, and Quarantine, non-operational passenger cars and other small and micro passenger vehicles (excluding minivans and vehicles with 7 seats or more) within 6 years of initial registration are exempt from on-site inspection. This means that 6-seater vehicles can enjoy a 6-year exemption from on-site inspection. However, they still need to undergo periodic inspections every 2 years. Process for vehicle annual inspection: First, an exterior inspection is conducted to verify if the vehicle's appearance matches the details on the registration certificate. Next is the emission test to check if the exhaust meets standards, followed by chassis, brake, and lighting inspections. Finally, fees are paid at the counter, and the annual inspection sticker is issued after completing the necessary procedures.
