What documents are required for a car's six-year inspection?
2 Answers
You need to bring the original vehicle registration certificate, the original copy of the compulsory traffic insurance policy, the vehicle and vessel tax certificate, and the original ID card. Additionally, please note the following: Advance Appointment: Some regions offer an appointment function. If you cannot make an appointment in advance, you may face difficulties in processing the service. Making an appointment also allows you to stay updated on the latest policy changes, so you can prepare in advance if there are special circumstances or new policies to follow. Time Selection: When handling the service at the relevant vehicle management department, you must adhere to working days. Services cannot be processed on national statutory holidays such as New Year's Day and Mid-Autumn Festival.
I just completed the six-year vehicle inspection, and bringing the right documents is actually quite simple but must be fully prepared. The original vehicle license is mandatory, along with the owner’s ID card. If someone else is handling it for you, bring your ID card as well. Although the compulsory traffic insurance policy is now digital, I recommend printing the latest page with the QR code as a backup. Remember, all traffic violations must be settled in advance—otherwise, you’ll be turned away at the inspection station. For those with window tinting or color modifications, ensure the vehicle license photo matches the actual car. My neighbor got stuck because they changed the wheel size without registering it. Before heading out, place the triangular warning sign in the trunk for easy access, and check that the lights and horn are working properly. This way, the whole process can be wrapped up in half an hour.
