Is the 2021 Compulsory Insurance Sticker Still Required?
2 Answers
2021 Compulsory Insurance Sticker is not required. Below are the relevant details: 1. Situations where it is not necessary to display the sticker: If the city where the car owner works and lives has implemented an electronic policy system, after purchasing insurance with an electronic policy, it is not necessary to display the compulsory insurance sticker in that city. 2. Situations where it is still required to display the sticker: In cities where the electronic policy system has not been implemented, paper policies are still used, and the compulsory insurance sticker must be displayed. For car owners from cities with electronic policy implementation, if they travel to or pass through cities without such policies, it is recommended to display the sticker; otherwise, traffic police may impose penalties if checked.
Speaking of the topic of compulsory insurance stickers in 2021, as someone who cares about automotive policies, I have to say they're basically unnecessary now. Since the promotion of electronic insurance policies, this matter has become much more convenient. I drive to and from work myself, and I can check my insurance status anytime through the Traffic Management 12123 App on my phone, eliminating the hassle of stickers getting ruined by rain or attracting thieves. This change benefits both the environment and our wallets—reducing paper waste and avoiding fines for expired stickers due to forgetfulness. However, I recommend ensuring your phone is charged or saving an electronic screenshot before heading out, just in case the police check when the signal is poor. Policies are consistent across different cities, but carrying a printed copy as a backup is more prudent in remote areas. Overall, digitalization is progress, making driving more carefree for us.
