For vehicles manufactured in 2009 that are over 10 years old, inspections are required every 6 months. If the vehicle is less than 10 years old, an annual inspection is sufficient. Additional information on vehicle inspections is as follows: 1. Vehicle Annual Inspection: This is a mandatory test for all vehicles that have obtained official license plates and registration certificates. It is equivalent to an annual physical examination for the vehicle according to the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." Vehicle annual inspections help promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage enhanced vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. 2. Inspection Schedule: For small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles, inspections are required every 2 years within the first 6 years, annually after 6 years, and every 6 months after 15 years. For commercial passenger vehicles, inspections are required annually within the first 5 years and every 6 months thereafter. For trucks and large or medium-sized non-commercial passenger vehicles, inspections are required annually within the first 10 years and every 6 months thereafter. Imported vehicles, like other vehicle types, can undergo regular inspections at any testing facility.
