What are the regulations for vehicle annual inspections?
1 Answers
Vehicle annual inspection regulations are divided into two parts: the exemption scope and the inspection cycle. Below are the detailed explanations of the vehicle annual inspection regulations: Exemption Scope: The exemption scope for motor vehicles has been expanded from the original 6 years and under for vehicles with 6 seats or fewer to include non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles with 7-9 seats. This means that after November 20th, non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles under 6 years old with 7-9 seats can enjoy the exemption policy. Inspection Cycle: Exempted vehicles can avoid on-site inspections for the first 6 years, only requiring formalities every two years. From 6-10 years, inspections are required annually. The new regulations indicate that the inspection cycle for private vehicles remains unchanged for the first 6 years, while for vehicles aged 6-10 years, the inspection frequency changes from annual to biennial. This means exempted vehicles will have biennial inspections within 10 years, with on-site inspections required only in the 6th and 8th years.
