How to Obtain the Inspection Exemption Decal for the Fourth Year of a New Car?
2 Answers
Visit the vehicle management office or the traffic management department of the public security authorities to obtain it. Alternatively, you can use the mobile app 'Traffic Management 12123' to obtain it. Vehicles exempt from inspection are only exempt from on-site testing but must complete the inspection within the specified time; otherwise, they will be considered overdue for inspection.
Last year, I just completed the fourth-year exemption inspection label process, and the whole thing went incredibly smoothly. Remember to first operate on the Traffic Management 12123 APP: open your phone, go to the homepage, find 'Exempt Vehicle Inspection Label Application,' then select your license plate number. The system will automatically check the vehicle's compulsory traffic insurance and violation records online. If the verification is successful, simply submit the application, and the electronic label will be issued to your account within three to five working days. If you need a paper label, remember to check the mailing option—just pay the postage, and it will be delivered to your door. Some regions also support handling it through government service platforms or picking it up in person at the vehicle management office, but the APP is the most hassle-free option. Don’t forget to clear all violations before applying, and make sure the compulsory traffic insurance is still valid. Remember to handle this within three months before the annual inspection expires—don’t be like my friend who dragged it out until it was overdue and got fined.
