Where to Collect the Free Inspection Sticker After Successful Application on Traffic Management 12123?

For vehicles that have successfully applied for the free inspection online, it is not mandatory to collect or affix the physical sticker. Starting from June this year, the digitalization of free inspection labels has been promoted. After a successful online application, the RFID tag can be presented when necessary, which holds the same legal validity as the paper version. There are numerous brands and models of vehicles eligible for free inspection. Whether a vehicle qualifies for free inspection is determined by the "Announcement on Road Motor Vehicle Manufacturers and Products" periodically released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, based on whether there is a record of free inspection. Information regarding free inspection vehicles: When handling vehicle registration or issuing temporary license plates, the traffic management departments of public security authorities will verify the parameters with those in the National Development and Reform Commission's "Announcement on Vehicle Manufacturers and Products." Vehicles marked as "new car free inspection" will no longer undergo safety performance testing.
After successfully applying for the exemption inspection sticker, you can directly view and receive the electronic label in the Traffic Management 12123 APP. Open the app, log in to your account, go to the 'My' or 'Business Processing' section, find the 'Vehicle Management' part, and click on your license plate number to see the electronic label icon. You can download and print it to stick on your car, or simply take a screenshot and save it in your phone's album for use anytime. Nowadays, electronic labels are very convenient—no need to go to the vehicle management office and wait in long lines for a sticker. That’s how I handled it last time. If the app freezes or won’t open, check your internet connection or try restarting your phone. Remember to wait a few minutes after a successful application and refresh the app to check for status updates—the system will automatically process the electronic version of the exemption inspection record. Just bring your phone when driving; showing the record in the app to the police during a check is very effective.
When I successfully applied for the exemption from inspection through the Traffic Management 12123 app, I found it incredibly convenient. After logging into the app, I could find my vehicle either on the homepage or under the 'My Vehicles' section. Clicking on the corresponding vehicle would display the electronic version of the inspection sticker. I could simply save it to my phone as a PDF file to print and stick on the windshield, or just show a screenshot from the app to the police during a check. Nowadays, everything is digitized, and physical stickers are hardly necessary. Last time I was checked, I just showed the record on my phone and it was done. If you're worried about saving the record, I recommend regularly backing up screenshots in your phone's album and not deleting them. The app also allows you to handle other vehicle-related tasks online, such as updating driver's license information, making it more versatile and easing your driving life a bit.
After successfully applying for the exemption inspection sticker, you can immediately claim it on the Traffic Management 12123 APP. Log in to your account, go to 'Vehicle Management,' and check the detailed page of your car—there will be an electronic badge displayed that you can download or screenshot for use. There's no need to get a physical sticker now, as the electronic version is widely adopted. Just carry your phone to check anytime—it saves time and is eco-friendly. I usually save it directly in the APP and keep my phone on while driving, just in case of inspections. It's convenient, fast, and ensures peace of mind during travel.
