Is Compulsory Traffic Insurance Policy Required for Vehicle Inspection?
2 Answers
You need to provide a copy of the compulsory traffic insurance policy to the vehicle management office. The vehicle inspection process is as follows: 1. Online inspection: After submitting the inspection application, proceed with the online inspection. Drive the vehicle into the automatic inspection area to sequentially check whether the exhaust emissions, speed, lights, side slip, and chassis meet the standards. All items must pass to proceed. 2. Exterior inspection: Verify the accuracy of the vehicle license plate, type, body color, engine number, VIN code, and frame number; inspect the vehicle's exterior: check details such as the bumper, engine compartment, rearview mirrors, lower mirrors, window glass, paint, engine operation status, and the interior of passenger vehicles and wheels. 3. Payment and receipt of certificates: The owner can obtain the inspection report and application form from the inspector. If all inspection items pass, you can proceed to pay the inspection fee and receive the vehicle license and certification label; if any items fail, the owner must repair them and participate in a re-inspection until they pass before proceeding with the visa procedures.
Yes, it's required. I remember last year when my car underwent its annual inspection, the staff at the inspection station immediately checked my compulsory traffic insurance policy. Without it, they wouldn't even proceed with the inspection. That time, I hadn't confirmed the policy's validity in advance and found out it had already expired. I had to rush to the insurance company to renew it, wasting an entire day. Compulsory traffic insurance is mandated by the state, and the inspection ensures every vehicle has legal insurance to protect everyone's safety on the road. So now, before the inspection, I always check if the policy is valid, making sure it covers at least the inspection date. If the policy is lost or incomplete, contact the insurance company immediately for a replacement, which can usually be obtained the same day. Don't overlook this detail—bringing the policy and vehicle license makes the inspection process much smoother, avoiding unnecessary hassle.
