New regulations for annual inspection of family cars: Small and micro non-operational passenger vehicles within 6 years shall be inspected every 2 years; those over 6 years shall be inspected annually; those over 15 years shall be inspected every 6 months. Article 16 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law" stipulates: Motor vehicles shall undergo safety technical inspections according to the following periods from the date of registration: (1) Operational passenger vehicles shall be inspected annually within 5 years; those over 5 years shall be inspected every 6 months. (2) Trucks and large/medium non-operational passenger vehicles shall be inspected annually within 10 years; those over 10 years shall be inspected every 6 months. (3) Small and micro non-operational passenger vehicles shall be inspected every 2 years within 6 years; those over 6 years shall be inspected annually; those over 15 years shall be inspected every 6 months. (4) Motorcycles within 6 years are exempt from inspection agencies. When periodic inspection is required, owners can directly apply for inspection qualification marks at traffic management departments. (5) Tractors and other motor vehicles shall be inspected annually. Operational vehicles passing safety inspections within prescribed periods need no repeated inspections. (6) Vehicles exceeding scrapping age cannot be transferred (sold), but can continue operating. For sales, owners should first obtain scrapping certificates (canceling vehicle records) at vehicle management offices. Motor vehicles can apply for annual inspection within 3 months before the inspection date. National regulations require vehicles to pass exhaust emission tests, exterior checks, light/brake/chassis inspections, and have no traffic violations to obtain qualification marks. All inspection dates follow the registration date on the vehicle license.
