It depends on Texas's emissions testing program, your registration ZIP code, and your vehicle's model year and fuel type. Some areas of Texas require testing, while others do not. Check your Texas state page in this directory or your DMV's website to see if your address in Round Rock is in a testing area.

Requirements depend on vehicle type (gasoline, diesel, hybrid, electric), model year, and weight, as well as where your vehicle is registered in Texas.
