Check what your certificate says.
Check the remarks on your inspection certificate or electronic certificate record. Purchase year or model year alone cannot determine eligibility.
Confirm using the official vehicle record.
An absent or uncertain entry here is not a definitive exemption. Ask a garage or inspection office to check the official remarks and model code.
- Ask whether the garage has the required registration and equipment.
- Ask whether electronic diagnosis and repairs are included.
- Report warning lights and symptoms before booking.
When did OBD inspections begin?
They began in October 2024 for domestic vehicles and October 2025 for imports. In principle, the system covers new types introduced from October 2021 (domestic) or October 2022 (imports), with exclusions including parallel imports. First-registration year alone is insufficient.
Checked September 23, 2026. This is a document guide, not a diagnostic test or compliance decision.
