Vietnam Register clarifies inspection extension rule
HCMC – Shortly after the Ministry of Transport issued a new circular extending the roadworthiness
Under the new regulation, the roadworthiness stamp and certificate for automobiles will be automatically renewed for an additional six months, starting from June 3, 2023.
This circular applies specifically to privately owned vehicles with up to nine seats and no commercial transportation purposes.
Furthermore, the vehicles must have had their roadworthiness stamp and certificate issued before May 22, 2023, and still be valid as of June 3, 2023. The vehicles should also fall within the manufacturing date range of seven years or between 13 to 20 years.
The objective of this measure is to tackle the backlog of auto inspection centers in the country and alleviate the pressure of urgent inspections for vehicle owners.
