What are the new regulations for vehicle annual inspection in Ningbo in 2021?
1 Answers
New regulations are introduced as follows: 1. Expand the scope of private car exemption from inspection and optimize the inspection cycle: On the basis of exempting non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles with 6 seats or fewer from inspection within 6 years, non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles with 7 to 9 seats within 6 years are now included in the exemption range. For non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles over 6 years but less than 10 years old, the inspection frequency is adjusted from once a year to once every two years. 2. Electronic inspection labels: Electronic inspection certificates have the same effect as paper certificates. Vehicles that have obtained electronic inspection certificates no longer need to display paper labels, and traffic authorities will not penalize vehicles for not displaying (or affixing) inspection labels. Electronic inspection certificates can be downloaded and saved on mobile phones for offline use when needed. 3. Extension of inspection due to COVID-19: If a vehicle is required to undergo a safety technical inspection during the epidemic prevention and control period, the inspection will be uniformly extended based on the epidemic situation. (For transport vehicles, the annual inspection cycle is automatically extended until 45 days after the end of the epidemic.)
