How to Check if a Vehicle Has Passed Annual Inspection?
2 Answers
Log in to the local traffic police website, click on the vehicle information inquiry, and enter the license plate number and engine identification code to check. Bring your ID card, driver's license, and vehicle registration certificate, hand them over to the staff, and they will assist you with the inquiry.
I've been driving for so many years that I'm quite experienced in checking annual inspections. The easiest way is to visit the local traffic bureau's official website, enter your license plate number and engine number, and you can directly check the status. Don't find it troublesome—this can help you avoid fines and penalty points. If you're not good with the internet, just drive to the vehicle management office with your vehicle license, and the staff will give you an instant answer. An even simpler method is to look at the top right corner of your windshield: the yellow inspection sticker is there with the expiry date clearly marked. Remember, I set a phone reminder every year before the expiry date, check it once, and drive with peace of mind to avoid being stopped by the police and fined, which could also affect insurance claims. I missed it once before and ended up paying for the repair costs out of pocket—that was truly regrettable.
