When is the first annual inspection for a new car?
1 Answers
New cars classified as non-commercial passenger vehicles are exempt from online annual inspections for the first six years, but a biennial inspection is still required to obtain the inspection decal. Exemption policy: According to Article 11 of the 'Opinions on Strengthening and Improving Motor Vehicle Inspection Work,' non-commercial passenger vehicles and other small and mini passenger vehicles (excluding vans and vehicles with 7 or more seats) are exempt from inspection for the first six years starting from September 1, 2014. Annual inspection precautions: Prepare all necessary documents, including the annual inspection application form, which must bear the traffic department's seal, company stamp, or personal signature along with a copy of the ID card, and must include the vehicle chassis and engine's stamped imprint. Additionally, bring the vehicle registration certificate and insurance policy. Any outstanding traffic violations must be settled, otherwise the inspection will not be processed.
