Is it possible not to display the vehicle inspection sticker now?
1 Answers
Many cities have begun piloting the digitization of motor vehicle inspection qualification stickers, eliminating the need for paper stickers and allowing for the download of electronic certificates online. However, this does not mean that all regions no longer require the display of annual inspection stickers. Generally, they still need to be displayed, but electronic verification is also available. Additional information is as follows: New Policy: The latest policy combines the vehicle annual inspection with the environmental protection inspection sticker into one. As long as the vehicle passes the annual inspection, there is no need to obtain a separate environmental protection sticker. Motor vehicles only need to display the inspection qualification sticker and the compulsory insurance sticker. Penalties for Not Displaying the Annual Inspection Sticker: According to Article 95 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China', driving a motor vehicle without displaying the inspection qualification sticker will result in a fine and a deduction of 1 point. In severe cases, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall detain the motor vehicle and notify the party to provide the corresponding license, sticker, or complete the necessary procedures. For vehicles within 6 years, it is required to apply for the annual inspection sticker at the vehicle management office every two years, although it is also possible to apply online. For vehicles older than 6 years, the sticker must be obtained after each annual inspection. As for vehicles older than 15 years, they must undergo inspection every six months to ensure they meet the roadworthiness standards.
