Is the Vehicle Annual Inspection Open During National Day?
2 Answers
Vehicle inspection stations are closed during the National Day holiday. Vehicle Inspection Process at the DMV: Bring your driver's license, ID card, vehicle registration, and the current valid compulsory traffic insurance policy. Drive the vehicle to the DMV or an authorized vehicle inspection station. (If someone is acting as your agent, the agent must bring their driver's license and ID card.) Fill out the annual vehicle inspection application form at the DMV. Then submit the form and all other required documents to the staff and pay the inspection fee. After payment, proceed outside where the staff will conduct an exterior inspection of the vehicle. Ensure you have a fire extinguisher and a warning triangle ready. Once the exterior inspection is completed, proceed immediately to the online inspection. Process and Workstation: When handling vehicle registration, driver's license tests, and issuance services, the DMV must use a business process record form (hereinafter referred to as the "Process Record Form") to document the procedures for vehicle registration and driver's license tests and issuance. Upon completing their tasks, each workstation must sign the Process Record Form. The supervisory workstation or business leadership workstation should note clear handling opinions on the Process Record Form when addressing issues reported by other workstations. The Process Record Form is archived in the vehicle and driver's records.
As someone who has worked with cars for many years, I can tell you that during holidays like National Day, vehicle inspection centers are mostly closed. National statutory holidays usually run from October 1st to 7th, and inspection stations, as government service agencies, generally take time off unless there is a special announcement about overtime arrangements. I recommend car owners get their annual inspections done one or two weeks in advance, rather than waiting until the last minute. Otherwise, driving with an expired inspection could result in fines or even accidents. I often hear friends complain about not being able to get their cars inspected during holidays, forcing them to rush to repair shops for last-minute checks, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Everyone knows the importance of annual inspections—they ensure vehicle safety. Don’t let holidays delay things; check the official website or call your local inspection station for their opening hours first.
