Where to Collect the Annual Inspection Sticker?
2 Answers
Annual inspection stickers are collected at the local vehicle management office. Car annual inspection or vehicle annual inspection refers to the annual examination of vehicles that have already obtained official license plates and registration certificates, conducted in accordance with the technical conditions for safe operation of motor vehicles. The purpose is to inspect the main technical conditions of the vehicle, urge the strengthening of vehicle maintenance, ensure the vehicle is always in good condition, and guarantee safe driving. The materials required for the annual inspection include: 1. Motor vehicle registration certificate; 2. Compulsory traffic insurance certificate; 3. Proof of vehicle and vessel tax payment or tax exemption; 4. The owner's ID card. If someone else is handling the process on behalf of the owner, the representative must bring their own ID card.
I've replaced my vehicle inspection sticker a few times, all obtained at the vehicle management office service hall. You can get it immediately after passing the annual inspection – just remember to bring your original vehicle license and ID card, plus copies as backup. Some cities now offer electronic stickers accessible via the Traffic Management 12123 app, eliminating the need for windshield display. But if you prefer a physical copy, you'll still need to visit the counter. Book an appointment through the app in advance to avoid morning rush hour queues. Alternatively, authorized local inspection stations may also issue stickers, though I recommend prioritizing the vehicle management office. Failing to renew on time risks fines, so handle it promptly after passing inspection. Check local public security websites or ask acquaintances for office locations.
