Where to Collect the Vehicle Inspection Sticker?
2 Answers
Vehicle inspection stickers can be collected at the vehicle management office or at inspection stations designated by the vehicle management office. To collect the sticker, you need to bring your vehicle registration certificate, compulsory traffic insurance, and ID card. The vehicle inspection process is as follows: 1. Fill out two forms: the Motor Vehicle License Plate Application Form and the Motor Vehicle Inspection Record Form; 2. Go to the annual inspection data entry window to submit and review the materials; 3. Visit the violation inquiry window—if there are any violations, pay the fines here; 4. Have an inspector perform an external inspection of the vehicle, which includes opening the hood and checking the chassis number. The inspector will provide a signed inspection approval page, which you then take to the inspection fee payment window to receive an invoice; 5. Proceed to the inspection login window and leave all materials there; 6. Wait in line for the inspection, and after completion, you will receive an inspection report; 7. Submit the annual inspection materials to the staff; 8. Upon passing the inspection, the annual inspection sticker will be issued.
I used to have to get my vehicle inspection sticker every year, so I'm quite familiar with the process. Generally, you can get it directly after passing the inspection at the service window of the inspection station. In some places, the vehicle management office or traffic police brigade has self-service machines or counters specifically for this purpose. Additionally, online methods are convenient too—just download the Traffic Management 12123 APP, upload the required documents for review, and have it mailed to your home. That's how I've been doing it for the past two years. Remember to bring your vehicle license and a copy of the compulsory insurance policy. It's best to call ahead and check local requirements. Nowadays, some cities also have agency windows at banks or postal points, though they charge a small service fee. Overall, I recommend going directly to the inspection station to get it on-site for the fastest service, and avoid queuing during the peak period at the end of the month.
