After logging into the Traffic Management 12123 platform, navigate through [Service Center] → [Apply for Inspection Exemption Mark] to enter the business process for applying for the inspection exemption mark. Select the motor vehicle for which you need to apply for the inspection exemption mark. Carefully read the business instructions for applying for the inspection exemption mark, then click 'Read and Agree' to proceed to the vehicle information confirmation page. Once the online verification of compulsory traffic insurance and vehicle and vessel tax is passed, confirm the vehicle information page, including the type of license plate, license plate number, vehicle status, and the expiration date of the inspection validity period. On the vehicle information confirmation page, click 'Next' to proceed to the mailing address selection page. After selecting the mailing address, you will be directed to the information confirmation and submission page.

Last year, I handled my car’s biennial inspection for the first time on the 12123 app, and it was quite convenient. As a new car owner, I first downloaded the 12123 app, registered an account, and logged in with my phone number to find the annual inspection appointment function under vehicle services. I uploaded photos of my ID card and scanned copies of the vehicle license, and the system automatically recognized the vehicle information. Then, I selected a nearby inspection station and a suitable date and time—I chose a Saturday morning so I wouldn’t have to take time off work. The payment was about 60 RMB, with support for Alipay and WeChat. After completing the process, I received an electronic appointment slip and went to the inspection station, where the queue moved quickly, and everything was done within half an hour. The whole process was much easier than going to the DMV, without the need to carry a pile of paper documents. I recommend new owners try it early to avoid overdue fines.

As a veteran driver with over a decade of experience, I'm accustomed to using the 12123 app for annual vehicle inspections. Each time I open the app, I select 'Vehicle Management' and choose the 'Inspection Service', then upload photos of my ID and vehicle documents – the system recognition is remarkably fast. Next, I book an inspection station and time slot, preferring off-peak hours to avoid queues. After online payment, I receive an electronic certificate and drive straight to the inspection center. The benefits include time savings and environmental friendliness by eliminating paper forms. Materials must be photographed clearly to avoid resubmission. For older vehicles, the app intelligently displays available slots at inspection points. I find this process straightforward for experienced users, and I often assist friends by sharing operational tips.

I use the 12123 app to handle my car's annual inspection for convenience. In the app, I select the annual inspection menu, upload the required documents, and book a testing site near my office. After payment, I go on the weekend and get it done in an hour without disrupting my work. Simple and efficient—I love it.

I often help my family car with the biennial inspection on the 12123 app. The app interface is straightforward—just select the inspection option, upload photos of my and the owner's ID documents, fill in the license plate information, and choose an inspection date. After payment, I bring the receipt to the on-site inspection, which is hassle-free and secure.

I found the 12123 app well-designed and clearly structured for handling annual vehicle inspections: first log in, select vehicle inspection, upload identity documents with accurate system verification; then book an inspection point with optimized distance options displayed on the map; after payment, complete electronic records are saved for future reference. The entire process prioritizes user convenience, making it ideal for detail-oriented drivers to complete the full procedure via mobile.
