What is the process for annual vehicle inspection?

You should drive the vehicle to the entrance of the inspection station, then remove valuables and wait for the next step of inspection. At this point, you can hand over the vehicle to the inspector and patiently wait for the inspection. The staff will issue an inspection fee receipt to the owner, who should then proceed to the service hall to pay the fee. Submit the previously received documents back to the staff, and finally, you will receive the vehicle inspection certificate.
I recently took my car for its annual inspection, and the process was actually quite smooth. First, I had to bring my vehicle registration and compulsory traffic insurance policy. I chose to book an appointment at the inspection station online in advance, which saved me from waiting in line. Upon arrival, the staff checked the car's exterior, including the lights, tires, and whether there were any scratches on the body—these couldn't have any issues. Then, the car was driven onto the testing line to check the brakes, test the brightness of the lights, and conduct an emissions test to see if the exhaust met the standards. While waiting for the results, I was a bit nervous, worried that something might not pass and require repairs. Once it passed, I went to the counter to pay and collect the new inspection sticker, which just needed to be placed on the windshield. The whole process took about an hour or so. It's recommended to maintain your car regularly to avoid last-minute issues that could waste time.
