For non-operational small passenger cars and micro passenger vehicles in their seventh year, the exemption policy for annual inspection applies. However, in the eighth year of vehicle use, an on-site inspection is required. The ninth year is again within the exemption period, while the tenth year necessitates another on-site inspection. Below are the relevant materials for annual inspection: 1. Required Documents: Original vehicle license, duplicate of compulsory traffic insurance, copy of ID card (for organizations, a copy of the agent's ID card is required), and the vehicle itself. 2. Inspection Schedule: In addition to the regular annual inspection, it is possible to conduct the inspection in advance at the vehicle management office. This advance period can be up to three months. The annual inspection timing is not based on specific dates but rather on months. For example, if the annual inspection deadline is September 10th, the inspection can be conducted in July, August, or September. Even if the inspection is done on the last day of September, it is still within the reasonable timeframe. However, exceeding the September deadline will make the process significantly more complicated.
