2016 new vehicles are exempt from inspection until 2021. The definition of an inspection-exempt vehicle is that it is exempt from on-site inspection within the first 6 years of the vehicle. Since 2022 is the sixth year of the vehicle, according to regulations, the vehicle must be taken to the vehicle management office for on-site inspection within the 3 months prior to the vehicle registration date. However, it is still necessary to apply for the annual inspection sticker at the vehicle management office or online every two years. Below are the conditions for the 6-year inspection exemption for new vehicles and the relevant regulations for motor vehicle annual inspections: Conditions for the 6-year inspection exemption for new vehicles: The motor vehicle must be a non-commercial vehicle; the vehicle's rated passenger capacity is 6 or fewer.
