Reply to comment by a-sillylittlegoose in Relocating to CT from CA by a-sillylittlegoose

You have to get it done in CT, and just to avoid confusion, it's actually called emissions testing (smog isn't really a thing here). You can find a place that does it here: https://ctemissions.com/

It's actually really simple, you don't need an appointment, and it's usually pretty quick. I just had to get mine done and it was literally less than 15 minutes.

Just make sure to bring cash. They only accept cash for emissions testing. It’s $20-30 (can’t recall the exact cost, but def less expensive than smog testing in CA)

In a world where you can't buy food with cash at the XL(state owned), you wonder where all the cash really goes? 🤔

Wait, is that true? I'm almost positive the last time I went to emissions I just used my regular credit card...

Just looked it up. They can accept other forms of payment, but they’re not required to. Every place I’ve gone to has been strictly cash only for emissions.

Ah gotcha. I've always gone to the same place so I guess that's why I never noticed haha

It's also called emissions testing in California, "getting your car smogged" is just a turn of phrase.
