Texas Vehicle Inspections End January 2025: Key Changes Ahead
Starting January 1, 2024, Texas drivers of non-commercial vehicles will no longer need annual state inspections for registration, but emissions tests will still be required in certain populous counties. House Bill 3297, passed in 2023, also introduces a $7.50 inspection program replacement fee to be paid during registration. The Texas Department of Transportation has released public service announcements to inform residents about these changes.
