You don't, unless you piss someone off on base. California doesn't ask for proof that you're passing smog checks. That's how you get away with not getting them done.

But getting away with not having smog checks done is not always the same as not ever being required to comply with california emissions. The law says you have to comply, they give you a break, but anytime they feel like it they could start asking for proof of compliance. Simply because the law already says you have to comply.



I'd keep a copy of that somewhere. There are other official documents that say you have to pass a smog check, it comes down to how the LEO/judge/superior feels at the time, just like almost everything else in california...
Yes, already printed... Lol, show that to your non-resident buddies, gives them something to fight with in court
