How to Obtain the Inspection Exemption Mark for Vehicles?
2 Answers
Vehicle inspection exemption marks can be applied for at the vehicle management office or through the 12123 APP. Below are the specific instructions for vehicle inspection exemption: 1. Required documents: vehicle license, compulsory motor vehicle traffic accident liability insurance and its copy, the ID card of the person handling the inspection, triangular warning sign, and fire extinguisher. Vehicle violations must be resolved, and no modifications are allowed on the vehicle body. 2. Posting regulations: The motor vehicle inspection compliance mark and insurance mark should be affixed to the upper right corner of the vehicle's front windshield. If a motor vehicle fails to display the inspection compliance mark and insurance mark as required, once discovered, traffic police will impose a fine.
My new car is exempt from inspection, so I didn’t need to go through the hassle of visiting the DMV to get the inspection sticker. I handled it directly on the Traffic Management 12123 app: after downloading the app and registering an account, I linked my vehicle’s license plate and engine number, then uploaded a photo of the valid compulsory insurance policy copy. The review usually takes a day or two, and the sticker is either sent electronically to your phone for download or mailed to your home. I chose the electronic version, which is stored directly in the Traffic Management app for easy checking. The exemption policy requires you to obtain the sticker every two years within the first six years to prove the vehicle meets standards without an on-site inspection. Before driving, I always check that the e-sticker in the app is still valid to avoid fines. This online method saves time and effort, especially for someone like me who hates queuing—I highly recommend giving it a try.
