[StMiles]

Solutions for overdue vehicle annual inspection: If a vehicle fails to undergo the mandatory safety technical inspection within the specified period, the public security traffic management department will issue a warning or impose a fine. The annual inspection can only be conducted after the fine is paid. Required documents for the annual inspection include: 1. Original vehicle license; 2. Valid original copy of the current year's compulsory traffic accident liability insurance policy for motor vehicles; 3. Valid proof of payment or exemption for the current year's vehicle and vessel tax; 4. Original personal identification document. Vehicle annual inspection is a mandatory test for all vehicles that have obtained official license plates and vehicle licenses, essentially an annual physical examination for the vehicle. It helps promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourages better vehicle maintenance, and reduces the occurrence of traffic accidents. For passenger transport vehicles, inspections are required once a year within the first 5 years, and every 6 months thereafter.
