As part of the general inspection, the roadworthiness and road safety are scrutinized in detail, based on \u00a7 29 of the German Road Traffic Licensing Regulations (StVZO). <\/p><p>Vehicles with their own license plate may therefore only be driven on the road with a valid HU sticker. For privately used cars and motorcycles, the HU is mandatory every 2 years. Trucks and vehicles for passenger transportation must have an annual inspection.  <\/p><p>Since 01.12.1999, there is no longer an extension of the deadline for the main inspection. If you exceed the deadline, you will have to pay a fine if you are caught by the police. (Excerpt from the catalog of fines) This will not happen to you if you know the due date for the main inspection of your vehicle.
