How to Determine a Vehicle's Emission Standard (China)

[McMaggie]

Understanding a vehicle's emission standard can be achieved by checking its environmental label, among other methods. Here are specific ways to determine a vehicle's emission standard: 1. Check the environmental label: Look for the vehicle's environmental label, which has clear markings on the back. 2. Online or on-site inquiry: Visit the website of the Motor Vehicle Exhaust Pollution Supervision and Management Center for an inquiry, or bring the vehicle registration certificate to the local vehicle management office for verification. 3. Check the compliance certificate: For new vehicles, you can refer to the vehicle's factory compliance certificate. 4. Estimate based on registration year: Make a rough estimation based on the year the vehicle was registered. Most vehicles registered after 2008 are China IV standard, while those registered in 2007 could be either China III or China IV.
