How to Conduct Annual Inspection for a New Car After 1 Year?
1 Answers
New cars do not require an annual inspection after one year. Generally, family cars (5-seater passenger vehicles) can enjoy a 6-year exemption from inspection, while 7-seater and above vehicles are not eligible for the 6-year exemption policy. For commercial vehicles, an annual inspection is required for the first 5 years, and after 5 years, a semi-annual inspection is necessary. Vehicle inspection regulations: 1. Five-seater cars: 5-seater cars enjoy an initial 6-year exemption from inspection. Although exempt from on-site testing for 6 years, they must apply for an inspection sticker every 2 years. The exemption is conditional on the vehicle not being involved in any major traffic accidents during this period; if an accident occurs, an on-site inspection is mandatory. 2. Seven-seater cars: 7-seater or larger vehicles do not qualify for the 6-year exemption and must undergo inspection every 2 years during the initial 6 years. 3. Commercial vehicles: An annual inspection is required for the first 5 years after registration, and a semi-annual inspection is required after 5 years. 4. Large vehicles: Trucks and medium to large non-commercial passenger vehicles must undergo an annual inspection within the first 10 years, and a semi-annual inspection after 10 years.
