3 Answers
The materials required for the 6-year inspection exemption mark are the motor vehicle inspection label application form, motor vehicle driving license, insurance policy, vehicle and vessel tax payment or tax exemption certificate, and the vehicle owner's ID card. Regulations for the 6-year inspection exemption of motor vehicles: The 6-year inspection exemption for non-operational passenger cars and other vehicles means that the vehicle is exempt from on-site inspection, but the owner still needs to apply for the inspection exemption mark at the vehicle management office, motor vehicle registration service station, or traffic police squadron within the specified period and affix it to the upper right corner of the vehicle's front windshield. Other regulations for the 6-year inspection exemption of motor vehicles: The 6-year inspection exemption policy for non-operational passenger cars and other vehicles has been implemented since September 1, 2014. Vehicles registered after September 1, 2012, can be exempt from inspection twice; vehicles registered between September 1, 2010, and August 31, 2012, can be exempt from inspection once; vehicles registered before August 31, 2010, are still subject to the original inspection regulations for annual review.
I only figured out the inspection exemption decal after buying my car. For the first six years with a new car, you don't need to go through the official inspection, but you must apply for this decal every two years. That decal is actually a small plastic sticker, affixed to the upper right corner of the windshield—quite thin but waterproof, with a silver coating and anti-counterfeit code on the surface, smooth to touch and not easy to tear. When applying, you can either visit the DMV or use a mobile app, just upload images of your vehicle license and insurance documents. This decal is important as it proves your car meets standards, saving you from police checks on the road. I remember the first time I got it was a bit of hassle, but later it became routine—simple materials and practical. Just make sure it doesn't peel at the edges.
I'm particularly fond of studying these little automotive details. The six-year exemption inspection decal is essentially a multi-layer composite plastic material, featuring a waterproof and UV-resistant outer layer, with an inner adhesive that ensures long-term adhesion without damaging the glass. Its design incorporates anti-counterfeiting measures, embedding invisible QR codes or numbers for easy scanning and verification to prevent counterfeiting. The material is eco-friendly and easy to recycle. There are various ways to apply for it, such as submitting an online application through the 12123APP, or visiting in person with copies of the compulsory traffic insurance and vehicle and vessel tax certificates. I think this decal not only ensures driving safety but also showcases clever technology, making its use quite reassuring.
