When do I need a Smog Check?

Most vehicles in California are required to pass a smog check every two (2) years in order to complete a registration renewal. Your DMV Registration Renewal Notice will indicate if your vehicle needs a smog check. You may take your vehicle to any smog check station. However, some vehicles will need to be taken to a STAR station only. Your renewal notice will indicate this if necessary.

What do I need to bring?

For the purpose of renewing your vehicle registration, you will only need to bring your vehicle, the DMV renewal notice and some form of accepted payment.

What happens during a Smog Check?

During a smog check, our licensed technician will connect your vehicle to equipment which also connects to the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR). Once the testing is completed, the results are then electronically transmitted to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). We will provide you with a Vehicle Inspection Report (VIR) which you should keep for your records.

When your vehicle passes the smog test, you may continue your registration with the DMV.
