What does 'Inspection valid until July 2021' mean?
1 Answers
It means the vehicle's annual inspection is valid until the end of July 2021. Below is relevant information about inspection validity period: 1. Introduction: Vehicle inspection validity period refers to the effective period of a vehicle's annual inspection. If a motor vehicle's annual inspection expires, it means the inspection wasn't conducted on time and the previous year's inspection validity has expired. Failure to conduct the inspection indicates the vehicle hasn't passed the required annual or biennial inspection. Vehicles without valid inspection certificates are not permitted to drive on public roads, and violations may result in penalties. 2. Inspection procedures: Within three months before the expiration date, owners can take their vehicle registration certificate, insurance policy, and ID card to any county-level vehicle management office in the city where the vehicle is registered for inspection. Generally, new vehicles require biennial inspections within the first six years, and annual inspections thereafter. After six years, inspections must be conducted on testing platforms, requiring visits to vehicle management offices equipped with such facilities. For cross-province vehicle inspections, owners need to obtain an inter-provincial vehicle inspection authorization letter from the original registration office in advance.
