Vehicle Emission Inspection
For the 2011 test season, all 1987-2008 model year gasoline
powered cars and light trucks (up to 8,500 lbs gross vehicle weight
rating) registered in Clayton County require an emission
inspection. The inspection station will give you a copy of
inspection letter (please bring in or mail in with your
application). A vehicle that is driven less than 5,000 miles per
year, is 10 years old or older AND is owned by a person 65 years of
age or older, may qualify for exemption. Tax Commissioner's
Office will issue waiver. This MUST be done each year.
