Where Can I Check the Vehicle Environmental Protection List?
2 Answers
Vehicle environmental protection lists can be queried by opening the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Network of the Motor Vehicle Emission Monitoring Center under the Ministry of Ecology and Environment on a computer. Below is relevant information about the environmental protection list: 1. Introduction: The full name of the environmental protection list is "Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Information Accompanying Vehicle List," such as the Light Gasoline Vehicle Environmental Protection Information Accompanying Vehicle List, Electric Vehicle Environmental Protection Information Accompanying Vehicle List, etc. According to the "Announcement on the Disclosure of Environmental Protection Information for Motor Vehicles and Non-Road Mobile Machinery" issued by the National Environmental Protection Department, starting from January 1, 2017, motor vehicle manufacturers and importers are required to disclose major environmental protection information in the form of a "Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Information Accompanying Vehicle List" before the product leaves the factory or the goods enter the country. 2. For parallel imports: Import companies need to disclose the information of imported vehicles before the commodity vehicles enter the country to prove that the vehicles comply with national environmental protection standards.
As a car owner with over 10 years of driving experience, I remember that after my last car purchase, I needed to check the environmental compliance list. It was easily done by simply entering the license plate number on the official website of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment. The process is straightforward—there's a query portal on the official website where you input the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The environmental list displays the vehicle's emission level, such as whether it meets the China VI standard, which is crucial for annual inspections and road legality. If the query yields no results, I'd recommend visiting the 4S dealership to obtain a copy of the original compliance certificate, or you can also check via the Traffic Management 12123 app. In daily driving, environmental compliance affects insurance discounts and traffic restriction policies in major cities. I've also noticed that new energy vehicles' environmental certifications are checked through the same system. Regularly keeping an eye on this can help avoid sudden traffic restriction issues, and developing good habits contributes to environmental protection.
