HB 2305 was passed during the 83rd legislative session. This bill eliminated the inspection sticker resulting in a single-sticker system and makes vehicle registration dependent on obtaining a passing vehicle inspection.
The inspection station will check the same elements that are currently inspected. However, you will receive a Vehicle Inspection Report (VIR) in lieu of an inspection sticker.
On March 1, 2015, vehicle inspection stations will no longer collect the state’s portion of the inspection fee. At the time of inspection, you will pay only the inspection station’s portion of the fee. The state’s portion of the inspection fee will be collected at the time of registration or renewal.
If your vehicle is registered in Collin, Denton, Dallas or Tarrant Counties, it must pass an emissions inspection test in conjunction with your annual vehicle safety inspection.
All inspections require proof of current insurance on the vehicle being inspected. Payment required by law pass or fail.
