Proposal to exempt first-time vehicle inspection for new cars
The Traffic Police Department has proposed that the Vietnam Register consider exempting new road motor vehicles from the factory with a remaining warranty period from the manufacturer.
The Traffic Police Department has just sent a document requesting the Vietnam Register on a number of issues related to motor vehicle inspection. Among them, it is considering exempting the first technical safety inspection for new road vehicles that are still under the manufacturer's warranty period.
In the immediate future, to reduce travel time and costs and facilitate people, the Traffic Police Department has proposed that the Vietnam Register consider allowing individuals and organizations that are vehicle owners in island districts to have their vehicles inspected (for the first time) before registering them, and that subsequent inspection cycles be carried out in accordance with the regulations of the Ministry of Transport. The reason is that imported, domestically produced and assembled vehicles have been inspected for technical safety and environmental protection before being sold on the market, so the Vietnam Register should also consider exempting new road motor vehicles from the factory that are still under the manufacturer's warranty.

Along with that, the Traffic Police Department also proposed diversifying inspection forms. Instead of only assigning it to inspection centers, it is also necessary to research and assign inspection to genuine maintenance and warranty facilities that meet the prescribed conditions.
The Vietnam Register also needs to conduct research to regulate the responsibility of vehicle owners in maintaining and repairing their vehicles, to avoid the situation where many vehicles have technical problems while in traffic, leading to accidents or engine failure, causing traffic congestion and affecting time and fuel for other vehicles.
In addition, coordinate with the police force in the fight to completely prevent repair facilities, modifications, and expansion of vehicle bodies, illegal swerving, racing, and overloading, causing disorder.
