Send price (and province) to get the on-road cost (giá lăn bánh): the registration fee and the plate fee are computed by /v1/vn-registration-fee and added to the recurring items.

Inspection prices are ceilings, insurers may adjust premiums by up to 15%, and motorbikes pay no national road fee. Each item names its decree and the review date.

FAQ

Which seat count do I send?

The registered seats including the driver. The road-fee rows count seats without the driver, the insurance table counts them with it; the API converts.

Why can a centre charge less than the inspection price?

QĐ 1838/QĐ-BXD sets maximum prices; each centre publishes its own price within the ceiling.

Is the 18-month road fee still available?

No. NĐ 364/2025 removed it; the periods are 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months.
