What materials are needed for a vehicle to undergo inspection?

To have a vehicle inspected, you need to prepare materials such as the compulsory traffic insurance policy, vehicle license, motor vehicle inspection application form, motor vehicle safety inspection certificate, and motor vehicle registration certificate. It's important to note that non-commercial passenger cars and new vehicles are exempt from inspection for the first six years. After six years, an annual inspection is required once every year. The regulations for motor vehicle inspection periods are as follows: 1. If a family car is over 15 years old, it needs to be inspected every six months; 2. Commercial passenger vehicles require an annual inspection, and if the vehicle is over 15 years old, it needs to be inspected every six months; 3. For large commercial passenger vehicles or cargo trucks, vehicles under 10 years old require an annual inspection, while those over 10 years old need to be inspected every six months.
I remember my first time going to the inspection line for a vehicle test last week, feeling both nervous and excited. I only brought the necessary materials with me. You need to prepare the original vehicle registration certificate, which is the most basic proof of vehicle ownership. Also, the compulsory insurance policy, usually stuck on the windshield or a photocopy, to ensure the insurance is within the valid period. Don’t forget to bring your ID card, as many places now require real-name verification. That day, I even made a special reservation but forgot to print the reservation slip, so I had to queue temporarily, which wasted time. If you need to test for emissions or safety indicators, the vehicle must be clean and tidy, with no major modifications. It’s advisable to call the inspection station in advance to clarify the specific materials required, as they may vary by region. During the inspection, they will check things like lights and brakes. If all the materials are complete, the whole process can be quite fast, taking about half an hour.
