Vehicle annual inspection regulations: Starting from November 20, 2020, non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles with 7-9 seats (excluding minivans) within 6 years are included in the exemption scope; for non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles (excluding minivans) over 6 years but less than 10 years, the inspection cycle is relaxed from once a year to once every two years, meaning private cars only need to undergo two on-site inspections within 10 years, specifically in the 6th and 8th years. Conditions for 6-year exemption from annual inspection: The motor vehicle must be non-operational; the approved passenger capacity must be 9 or fewer. Starting from November 20, 2020, 7-9 seat non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles (excluding minivans) are included in the exemption scope; the vehicle type specified on the driving license: sedan (mini, small, medium, large), mini ordinary passenger vehicle, mini off-road passenger vehicle, small ordinary passenger vehicle, small off-road passenger vehicle, small special passenger vehicle; vehicles that have not been registered for over 4 years since the manufacturing date are excluded; vehicles must meet the above conditions and must not have been involved in any fatal traffic accidents during the exemption period. Annual inspection content: Check whether the engine, chassis, body, and attached equipment are clean, complete, and functional, whether the paint is uniform and aesthetically pleasing, whether major assemblies have been replaced, and whether they match the initial inspection records; Test whether the vehicle's braking, steering, lighting, exhaust, and other safety performances meet the requirements of the "Technical Conditions for Safe Operation of Motor Vehicles"; Check whether the vehicle has been modified, reconstructed, or altered, whether the driving license, license plate, and vehicle registration records match the actual condition, whether there are any changes, and whether approval and modification procedures have been completed; Check whether the license plate, driving license, and enlarged license plate markings on the vehicle are damaged, altered, or illegible, and whether they need replacement; For large vehicles, check whether the unit name or the street, township, or town name and the maximum seating capacity in the driver's cabin are printed in imitation Song font on both sides of the door as required; For trucks, check whether the rear gate (including the trailer's rear gate) displays the vehicle number enlarged 2-3 times as required, and whether the words "individual" are printed on both sides of the door for individual or joint-operation vehicles. The markings must be clear, and unit codes or other patterns are not allowed (special cases require approval from the vehicle management office).
