What to Do If You Forgot to Get Your Vehicle Inspected?

There are generally two methods for making an appointment: one is phone appointment, and the other is online appointment, making it very convenient. Based on your scheduled time, go to the designated vehicle management office to fill out the Application Form for Motor Vehicle Inspection Mark. Queue up to get a number and wait for your turn to be processed, which usually takes just a few minutes.
Oh, my memory is really failing me. Yesterday, I suddenly remembered that my car's annual inspection had been overdue for several days. I quickly checked online and found out that handling a forgotten inspection is actually quite simple. First, call the local vehicle management office hotline to inquire about the overdue situation. Usually, for the first few days, you just need to pay a small fine. Last time, I paid a little over 200 yuan, and then immediately scheduled an appointment at the nearest inspection station to make up for it. Remember to bring your vehicle license, ID card, and insurance policy—it usually takes about an hour to complete. Forgetting the inspection doesn’t incur a high fine, but small amounts add up over time, and it also affects your vehicle's safety record. I usually set a reminder on my phone calendar and check it weekly to avoid repeating the same mistake. Maintaining a car requires consistent attention to keep things hassle-free.
