What documents are required for car inspection?
2 Answers
Documents required for vehicle annual inspection include the ID card of the vehicle owner or agent, and the vehicle registration certificate. For compulsory traffic insurance, check the validity date of the insurance that includes vehicle and vessel tax before the inspection. If it has expired or will expire within three months after the inspection date, it is recommended to renew the insurance in advance. Notes for vehicle annual inspection: Bring the duplicate of the compulsory traffic insurance, which can be submitted directly without the need for photocopying. Arrive before the morning work shift (usually 8:30) to save time. Clear all vehicle violation records. Now, inspection stations can also handle on-site payment of fines. If the vehicle has issues, repairs can be done at the inspection station.
I've been driving for almost ten years, and every year for the vehicle inspection, I make sure to prepare the basic documents: First, the vehicle's registration certificate—this is absolutely essential, it's like the car's ID card. Second, the owner's ID card, which I need to bring if I'm handling it myself to prove it's me. Also, a copy of the compulsory traffic insurance policy, showing the insurance is valid. I recommend bringing the vehicle registration certificate, that green booklet, as some inspection stations may require it to verify vehicle details. Regarding preparations, I check the car's lights, brakes, and emissions a week in advance to ensure there are no minor issues, avoiding the hassle of failing and having to redo it. Also, clear all traffic violation records, or you won't pass. Bring cash or a payment card to cover the inspection fee—the whole process takes about half an hour if everything goes smoothly. The key is to prepare everything early, saving both time and hassle.
