Vehicle annual inspection and review do not require the vehicle registration certificate. Documents to be submitted include the vehicle license, compulsory traffic accident liability insurance certificate, etc. The regulations on motor vehicle registration and precautions before applying for annual inspection are as follows: Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations: According to Article 49 of the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations', the owner of a motor vehicle may apply for an inspection compliance mark at the vehicle management office of the registration location within three months before the expiration of the motor vehicle inspection validity period. Precautions Before Applying for Annual Inspection: Before applying, the owner of the motor vehicle shall complete the handling of any road traffic violations and accidents related to the vehicle. When applying, the owner shall fill out an application form and submit the vehicle license, compulsory traffic accident liability insurance certificate, vehicle and vessel tax payment or tax exemption certificate, and motor vehicle safety technical inspection compliance certificate. The vehicle management office shall, within one day from the date of acceptance, confirm the motor vehicle, review the submitted certificates and documents, and issue the inspection compliance mark.

Honestly, you definitely need to bring the vehicle registration certificate for the annual inspection! It's just like bringing your ID card when handling bank business. The registration certificate, commonly known as the 'big green book,' contains key information about your car, such as its identity details and VIN. Last time I accompanied a friend to the inspection station, the first thing the staff did was check this book to verify the information. In addition to the original registration certificate, don't forget to bring the vehicle license, the owner's original ID card, and a copy of the valid compulsory traffic insurance policy for the current year. Some places also require clearing any traffic violation records in advance. It's advisable to call the inspection station beforehand to confirm the latest requirements to avoid a wasted trip and unnecessary delays. If you happen to lose your registration certificate, don't panic—just go to the vehicle management office to get a replacement first.

I drive my car for the annual inspection every year, and the vehicle registration certificate is an absolute must-have. Without this booklet, the inspection line won't even accept your car. The staff needs to verify if the registered vehicle information matches the actual car, especially core data like the engine number and chassis number. At the same time, the owner's ID card must be carried. If it's handled by a proxy, the proxy's ID card and a power of attorney are also required. In some regions, the compulsory traffic insurance policy can now be electronic, but it's safer to bring a paper copy as well. Also, remember to check your car's lights, brakes, and exhaust emissions, as these minor issues could lead to the hassle of a re-inspection.

Annual inspection is not just a formality; bringing all the required documents is essential for a smooth process. The vehicle registration certificate must be presented in its original form, as it serves as the 'household register' for your car. During the on-site verification at the inspection station, staff will meticulously compare the VIN number stamped on your vehicle with the details recorded in the registration certificate—even a single digit discrepancy is unacceptable. Note that new cars purchased after 2018 in some cities may qualify for a six-year exemption from inspection, but they still need to collect the inspection stickers on time. For commercial vehicles or cars older than ten years, the inspection will involve more items and stricter standards, making it particularly important to settle any outstanding traffic violations beforehand. If you forget to bring the necessary documents, you will be turned away, so don’t waste time waiting in line unnecessarily.

Bringing the vehicle registration certificate is the most basic requirement for the annual inspection. This green hardcover booklet records the original registration information of the vehicle, and the inspection process cannot even begin without it. In practice, they will also simultaneously check the validity of the vehicle license and the status of compulsory traffic insurance (electronic policies are now accepted in some areas). It's important to note that if the vehicle has undergone ownership transfer or any changes, the corresponding endorsements and seals must be present on the attachment pages of the registration certificate. Those who have modified their headlights or rims should be especially cautious, as illegal modifications may result in being stopped on the spot and required to restore the original condition. Additionally, it's advisable to check for any traffic violations and clear all fines in advance through the 12123 App, otherwise, the system will not be able to process the inspection.
