According to the relevant provisions of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law": Small and micro non-operating passenger vehicles must be inspected once every 2 years within the first 6 years; after 6 years, they need to be inspected once every year; after 15 years, they must be inspected once every 6 months. Annual Inspection Process: 1. Exhaust Emission Test: First, queue up and pay the inspection fee at the payment window, then wait for your turn. Before the test, staff will conduct a preliminary inspection, mainly checking if the engine number matches the driving license, followed by a brief look at the vehicle's appearance and condition, and then filling out the exhaust emission test form. During the test, the inspector will drive the vehicle onto the testing line. New vehicles usually pass easily, and once you receive a qualified exhaust emission test form, you can proceed to the window to pay and collect the emission compliance label. If the vehicle fails, it needs to be adjusted at a repair shop and retested, which requires paying the inspection fee again. 2. Check for Traffic Violations: At the query window, collect and fill out the "Motor Vehicle Regular Inspection Registration Form," which can be obtained with the driving license. After filling out the form, submit it to the staff to check for any traffic violation records. If there are no issues, the form will be stamped with "Verified, Eligible for Inspection." If there are violations, handle them as soon as possible with the violation notice. 3. Pay the Deposit: Pay the deposit at the deposit window, keep the deposit receipt, and collect and fill out the appearance inspection form. 4. Appearance Inspection: Take the appearance inspection form to the appearance inspection station. First, the relevant procedures will be checked, including verifying if the third-party insurance (compulsory insurance) is still valid. After the procedures are checked, the appearance inspection begins. This inspection mainly checks for any damaged lights, whether the vehicle's appearance matches the original condition, any changes to the suspension, as well as the sunroof, tires, etc.
