How to Affix the Compulsory Traffic Insurance Sticker?
2 Answers
New vehicles should affix the compulsory traffic insurance sticker in the upper right corner of the windshield where it does not obstruct the view. The "Regulations on Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance for Motor Vehicles" clearly stipulate: The compulsory traffic insurance sticker should be affixed to the upper right corner of the front windshield in the driver's compartment; if there is no driver's compartment, it should be carried at all times. Below are the precautions for affixing the compulsory traffic insurance sticker: 1. The compulsory traffic insurance sticker can be directly affixed to the upper right corner of the front windshield by peeling off the sticker and applying it. However, when directly affixing the sticker to the windshield, it can be difficult to remove when expired or when replacing the windshield. 2. You can use a static cling sticker to affix the compulsory traffic insurance sticker. Peel the compulsory traffic insurance sticker from its backing paper, attach it to the static cling sticker, then remove the protective paper. After affixing, peel off the static cling sticker and apply it to the upper right corner of the front windshield.
Last time I helped a friend handle the compulsory traffic insurance, it took two trips. Here's some practical advice: The most reliable way is to go directly to the insurance company's counter with your ID card, vehicle license, and last year's policy (for a new car, bring the purchase invoice). Nowadays, you can also do it on mobile apps—just upload photos of your documents. You can buy it by searching 'auto insurance' on Alipay or through the official WeChat account of the insurance company. After entering your license plate and personal information, select compulsory traffic insurance and make the payment. Remember to double-check the vehicle details and address before paying! The premium is nationally standardized—950 yuan per year for vehicles with fewer than 6 seats. After completion, you'll receive an electronic policy, which you can print and keep with your vehicle license; traffic police can scan the code to verify it. Important reminder: Never let the policy expire, or you won’t pass the annual inspection, and if caught, your car may be impounded, and you’ll have to pay a fine.
