In Canada we have a Safety and an e-test. Safety is only done when a vehicle is sold. An e-test (emissions) is done every 2 years, once the car is 7 years old.

The safety is pretty basic. The vehicle needs to brake, the exhaust needs to be there, stuff like that. After market stuff doesn't really matter, which is great. So we can tint the windows, install after market exhausts etc. Even cops are easy going and leave you alone as long as you adhere to the basic traffic rules, at least where I live.
It is unbelievable how lenient vehicle inspections actually are here in Ontario, Nothing like your TüV. Especially considering that we live in the rust belt. It is shocking to see the condition of some cars.
