[CaliFitz]

For household 5-seat sedans and 7-seat SUVs, non-commercial small and micro vehicles have no usage lifespan limit. When the normal mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the state will guide for scrapping. In addition to the above vehicles, small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles, large non-commercial sedans, and wheeled special machinery vehicles also have no usage lifespan limit. Commercial vehicles have scrap life limits as follows: Small and micro taxi passenger vehicles have a scrap life of 8 years, medium taxi passenger vehicles 10 years, and large taxi passenger vehicles 12 years. Bus passenger vehicles have a scrap life of 13 years, other small and micro commercial passenger vehicles 10 years, and large and medium commercial passenger vehicles 15 years. Micro commercial trucks have a scrap life of 8 years, light and large commercial trucks 10 years. The vehicle scrapping process is as follows: The vehicle owner applying for scrapping and renewal must fill out the "Application Form for Vehicle Modification, Transfer, Alteration, Suspension, or Scrapping" in duplicate and affix the owner's seal. The registration office accepts the application and issues a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" for vehicles that have reached the scrap life. For vehicles that have not reached the scrap life, after verification by the vehicle inspection office and confirmation of meeting the scrapping standards, a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" is issued. The vehicle owner chooses a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle with the "Notice". The recycling company dismantles the vehicle and takes photos after verifying the "Notice". The engine must be separated from the vehicle, the engine block must be broken, and the frame (chassis) must be cut. The vehicle owner submits the "Modification Form", "XX Province Vehicle Renewal Technical Appraisal Form", "Scrapped Vehicle Recycling Certificate", and vehicle dismantling photos to the vehicle inspection office for verification and signature. The license plates are reclaimed, and the scrapping registration is processed according to regulations. Special Notes: According to Article 30 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", if the vehicle is damaged and cannot be driven back to the registration location, the owner can sell the scrapped vehicle to a local motor vehicle recycling company. Commercial vehicles converted to non-commercial use must be scrapped according to the original commercial vehicle's scrapping time. According to Article 43 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", after completing the transfer or cancellation of motor vehicle registration, the original owner can apply to the vehicle management office to use the original license plate number when registering a new vehicle. The application must meet the following conditions: (1) The application is made within six months after the transfer or cancellation; (2) The owner has owned the original vehicle for more than three years.
