Is Vehicle Inspection Mandatory at the Local DMV?
1 Answers
Vehicle inspection can be conducted in a different location and does not necessarily require going to the local DMV. However, a delegation inspection letter must be obtained from the local DMV. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law Implementation Regulations," small cars must be inspected once every two years within the first six years, and once annually after exceeding six years. New cars are exempt from inspection only in the first year, after which they must comply with the regulations: inspection once every two years within six years and once annually after six years. Below is an introduction to the vehicle annual inspection requirements: 1. Passenger transport vehicles: annual inspection within five years; inspection every six months after exceeding five years; 2. Freight vehicles and large or medium-sized non-passenger transport vehicles: annual inspection within ten years; inspection every six months after exceeding ten years; 3. Small and micro non-passenger transport vehicles: inspection once every two years within six years; annual inspection after exceeding six years; inspection every six months after exceeding fifteen years; 4. Motorcycles: inspection once every two years within four years; annual inspection after exceeding four years; 5. Tractors and other motor vehicles: annual inspection. Operational motor vehicles that pass the safety technical inspection within the specified period do not need to undergo repeated safety technical inspections; 6. Vehicles exceeding the scrapping age: cannot be transferred (sold or bought), but can continue to be used. For transactions, the vehicle's scrapping certificate (canceling the vehicle's records) must first be processed at the DMV before proceeding with the transaction.
