Is the annual vehicle inspection conducted at the DMV or the inspection station?

[BradleyRose]

Vehicle annual inspection is conducted at both the DMV and the inspection station, and both locations must be visited. The DMV primarily handles applications for motor vehicle driver's licenses, replacements, renewals, inspections, and other services related to motor vehicles and drivers. The inspection station mainly conducts comprehensive performance tests on motor vehicles. While the two are related, their functions are distinctly different. Before the annual vehicle inspection, relevant documents must be prepared, including the original vehicle registration certificate, a copy of the compulsory traffic insurance, a copy of the ID card, and the vehicle itself. For company-owned vehicles, additional documents of the agent are required. It is recommended that vehicle owners conduct the inspection three months in advance, as early inspection will not affect the next inspection date.
