Is it necessary to have an annual inspection for a car after six years?
1 Answers
Whether a car requires an annual inspection after six years depends on the specific situation: small and micro non-operational passenger vehicles are exempt from inspection for the first six years. For vehicles over six years but less than ten years old, inspections are required every two years; for vehicles over ten years but less than fifteen years old, an annual inspection is required; for vehicles over fifteen years old, inspections are required every six months. Operational passenger vehicles require an annual inspection within the first five years; after five years, inspections are required every six months. Inspection requirements for other vehicles: Trucks and large and medium-sized non-operational passenger vehicles require an annual inspection within the first ten years; after ten years, inspections are required every six months. Imported vehicles, like other vehicle types, can undergo regular inspections at any testing facility. Notes on vehicle inspections: Vehicles that fail the inspection must be repaired within a specified time limit. If they still fail after the deadline, the vehicle management office will confiscate their license plates and prohibit further driving. Vehicles that do not undergo inspections without reason or fail the inspection are not allowed to drive on the road or transfer ownership. Vehicles that meet the scrapping conditions or exceed the prescribed service life will not be inspected, and their license plates will be revoked, their records deleted, and they will be scrapped.
