Is the Annual Inspection Sticker Required to be Affixed on the Car Windshield?
1 Answers
Vehicle inspection compliance stickers must be affixed on the car windshield. Failure to display the annual vehicle inspection sticker will result in penalties: In severe cases, the vehicle may be impounded. Vehicle owners can apply for inspection and obtain the compliance sticker at the vehicle management office up to three months before the expiration of the current inspection period. The vehicle management department must confirm the vehicle's status, review submitted documents, and issue the inspection compliance sticker within one day of accepting the application. If a motor vehicle driven on the road does not display the license plate, inspection compliance sticker, insurance sticker, or if the driver fails to carry the vehicle registration certificate or driver's license, the traffic management authorities of the public security department shall impound the vehicle and require the party to provide the corresponding plates, stickers, or complete the necessary procedures. Legal regulations regarding the placement of annual vehicle inspection stickers: Article 13 of the "Traffic Law Management Regulations" issued by the State Council stipulates: Vehicles driven on the road must display the inspection compliance sticker and insurance sticker on the upper right corner of the front windshield.
