How often should a 10-year-old car undergo annual inspection?
1 Answers
For privately-owned vehicles over 10 years old, the original inspection cycle still applies, meaning they must be inspected once every year for vehicles aged 10-15 years. Additional information: Inspection schedule: For small and micro passenger vehicles, the inspection cycle is as follows - new cars do not require inspection within the first six years, but must apply for inspection decals every two years. After six years of use, vehicles must undergo annual inspections. When a vehicle reaches 15 years of service, it must be inspected twice a year. Therefore, a 10-year-old small passenger vehicle requires one annual inspection. Important notes for vehicle inspections: The inspection date is indicated on the vehicle's registration certificate. Owners can conduct the inspection up to three months in advance of the due date, but no delays are permitted - even one day overdue counts as a violation. Traffic police can impose fines and deduct 3 points if they stop an overdue vehicle. Before inspection, all traffic violation records must be cleared; otherwise, the vehicle cannot undergo the inspection.
