Why is there no environmental protection label after the vehicle inspection?
2 Answers
Environmental protection labels have been abolished, so there is no such label after the vehicle inspection. The details are as follows: 1. Introduction: According to the relevant regulations in the "Notice on Further Standardizing Emission Inspections and Strengthening Environmental Supervision and Management of Motor Vehicles" jointly issued by the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Environmental Protection: Strictly implement the motor vehicle emission inspection system. Motor vehicle emission inspection agencies must strictly adhere to the emission inspection standards and upload the emission inspection data and electronic inspection reports to the environmental protection department, issuing a unified emission inspection report coded by the environmental protection department. 2. Explanation: The abolition of the motor vehicle environmental protection label does not mean that the periodic emission inspection results of motor vehicles are no longer valid. Motor vehicles must pass the emission inspection to obtain the safety inspection label. The new regulation essentially means that the environmental protection label and the safety inspection label have been merged into one.
Last year during the vehicle inspection, I was also puzzled why I didn't get the green label. Later I learned the policy had changed long ago. Since 2017, the paper-based environmental protection label has been abolished nationwide and merged into the annual inspection label. Now testing stations upload emission data to the system, and traffic police can check whether the exhaust meets standards by scanning the code. We car owners don't need to worry about label display issues - just keep the annual inspection label intact. If checked on the road, showing the electronic insurance policy or 12123 filing information also works. It saves the time of going to the window to collect labels. All environmental protection information is stored in the vehicle management database - now that's real convenience.
