What does the 6-year exemption from inspection mean?
1 Answers
Newly purchased vehicles are exempt from inspection for the first 6 years. The following points should be noted: Notes on the 6-year inspection exemption: The 6-year exemption does not mean exemption from annual inspection, but rather exempts the vehicle from the step of undergoing on-site inspection at a testing station. The on-site inspection procedure is only one part of the annual vehicle inspection. Owners still need to bring their compulsory traffic insurance policy and vehicle and vessel tax certificate to the traffic management department every two years to apply for the annual inspection sticker. Relevant regulations on vehicle inspection: According to Article 16 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law", motor vehicles shall undergo safety technical inspections according to the following periods from the date of registration: commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected once a year within 5 years; vehicles older than 5 years must be inspected every 6 months. Trucks and large or medium-sized non-commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected once a year within 10 years; vehicles older than 10 years must be inspected every 6 months. Small and mini non-commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected once every 2 years within 6 years; vehicles older than 6 years must be inspected once a year; vehicles older than 15 years must be inspected every 6 months.
