How Many Years Should a New Car Go for Inspection?

[LaAnna]

For private passenger vehicles (excluding those with 7 seats or fewer) within 6 years of use, they are exempt from on-site inspection line testing. This means that new cars still need to undergo an initial test every two years, but are exempt from two on-site line tests in the second and fourth years. As long as you submit the annual vehicle and vessel tax payment certificate and compulsory traffic insurance certificate each year, and after handling any traffic accidents and traffic safety violations, you can directly receive the inspection compliance label. It is important to note that if your vehicle is involved in a traffic accident causing casualties during this period, you still need to undergo inspection as per the original regulations (i.e., on-site line testing). Additionally, private passenger vehicles aged 6 to 15 years must be inspected once a year, and those over 15 years must be inspected every six months. On the basis of exempting non-commercial small passenger vehicles with 6 seats or fewer from inspection within 6 years, the exemption scope is further expanded to include non-commercial small passenger vehicles with 7-9 seats (excluding vans) within 6 years. The exemption scope for the first six years is expanded, allowing 7-9 seat vehicles to be exempt from on-site inspection within six years. For non-commercial small passenger vehicles (excluding vans) aged between 6 and 10 years, the inspection cycle is relaxed from once a year to once every two years, meaning private cars only need on-site inspection twice in 10 years, specifically in the 6th and 8th years. If the new car inspection is for private car procedures, no on-site inspection is required in the first six years. Every two years, you can go to the registration service station under the local vehicle management office to collect the annual inspection label. In the new car inspection regulations, six items have been removed: dynamic inspection, speedometer error detection, interior noise detection, electronic parking brake detection, headlight deviation detection, and suspension detection. Two new inspection items have been added: tire tread depth detection and vehicle wheelbase detection. New cars must undergo verification every two years within the first six years. The driving license indicates the verification validity period (the effective date here refers to the end of the month), and verification can be done up to 90 days in advance.
