What are the regulations for the inspection time of 7-seater vehicles?
1 Answers
According to regulations, 7-seater vehicles and models with more than 7 seats require inspection every 2 years for the first 6 years, then annual inspection for 7-seater vehicles aged 6-15 years, and semi-annual inspection for 7-seater vehicles over 15 years old. Below are the relevant details about vehicle inspection: 1. Non-operational passenger cars: Including non-operational passenger cars, non-operational small and micro passenger vehicles can enjoy a 6-year exemption from annual inspection. However, minivans and 7-seater or larger models are not eligible for this exemption. Eligible private cars registered after September 2012 can enjoy the exemption policy, requiring annual inspection thereafter. Vehicles aged 6 to 15 years must undergo annual on-site inspection, while those over 15 years require semi-annual on-site inspection. 2. Handling of overdue inspections: Although new vehicles within six years do not require on-site annual inspection, owners still need to provide proof of compulsory traffic accident liability insurance, payment or exemption of vehicle and vessel tax, and must settle any traffic violations or accidents before applying for the inspection label from the traffic management department. It is essential to comply with annual inspections, which can be conducted up to three months in advance, but overdue inspections will incur additional fines. The annual inspection time is based on the vehicle's initial registration date. For example, if the initial registration date on the vehicle's license is June 2018, the annual inspection time is every June.
