Is it necessary to affix the inspection compliance label for a new car?

New cars do not require the affixation of an inspection compliance label, as the electronic certificate for motor vehicle inspection has been implemented nationwide. 1. Electronic Certificate: After completing the new vehicle registration and inspection procedures, owners can directly apply for it through the "Traffic Management 12123" mobile app. The electronic inspection certificate holds the same validity as the paper label. 2. Labels to be Affixed: According to previous regulations, motor vehicles were required to display three labels: the environmental inspection compliance label, the compulsory traffic insurance label, and the vehicle inspection compliance label. However, with the advancement of the information age and the gradual simplification of vehicle-related procedures, many inspection labels have begun to merge and are now being digitized.

When I first got my new car, I was wondering about the inspection sticker. Later, I asked the salesperson, and he said that for the first 6 years, new cars don’t need to display a physical inspection sticker due to the policy exemption period. However, every two years, you need to apply for an exemption certificate on the traffic management app and keep it on your phone. I handled it online directly—saved both money and hassle. Don’t worry, there’s no rush to display it in the first few years; traffic police won’t check it during this period. But remember to renew it on time to avoid issues from expiration. Maintaining the car is more important, like regularly checking lights and brakes—these ensure driving safety more than the sticker does.

I know many people are unaware of the new policy regarding inspection stickers. New vehicles indeed no longer require the affixation of an inspection compliance sticker, and are exempt from on-site inspections for the first 6 years. During this period, owners only need to apply for an electronic certificate online every two years, which can be saved directly on their phone or email, eliminating the need to place anything on the windshield. I've encountered friends with new cars still applying the sticker, which is purely a waste of effort and unnecessary. The rules have changed for quite some time now, and everyone should just get used to it. Once the exemption period expires, make sure to get the vehicle inspected and affix the sticker promptly to avoid fines. Most importantly, stay alert while driving—safety should always come first.

When getting a new car, I was curious about the inspection sticker issue. It turns out that in recent years, there's no need to affix the inspection label due to the exemption policy. You only need to complete simple procedures every two years for an electronic certificate. This is quite convenient, avoiding the hassle of repeatedly sticking labels on older cars. I also pay attention to car maintenance, such as checking fluids and tires, to ensure safe driving. If I forget to handle the procedure, I can simply check it on my phone. In short, new cars involve much less hassle with stickers.

I understand the importance of the inspection compliance decal, but new cars don’t need to display a physical one during the initial years. New vehicles are exempt from inspection for the first few years, and owners can avoid hassle by applying for the electronic certificate on time. I recommend not procrastinating—set a reminder on your calendar to apply for the inspection exemption proof promptly. Meanwhile, even though new cars perform well, regular checks on systems like brakes and steering are essential to prevent potential risks. This does more to protect your safety and others’ than the decal itself. Drive carefully—the new regulations are designed for convenience and efficiency.

For new vehicles, there's no need to affix the inspection compliance sticker. The policy grants an exemption, requiring only an electronic certificate every two years for the first six years, which is easily handled. I've done it myself a few times on the app—just a few minutes, and the windshield stays clean. A reminder: only after the vehicle is over six years old will it need an on-site inspection and sticker. Don't mix up the rules for new and old cars—just confirm with the technician during maintenance to clear any doubts. The process is quite smooth; just focus on driving.
