Anything with cats will allow you to pass emissions. Just don't go off-road and you'll be fine.

You asked what midpipe, I said stock. As in stock H pipe with factory cats. High flow cats might pass, depends on how strict they are.

What kind of emissions testing is done there? They do the OBDII scan where I live for emssions testing. I've passed with 2 cars that had no cats on them. Just needed an O2 sensor spacer.

Just get a catted pipe if you're worried about it, though you COULD have trouble, like some said, even with hi-flow cats if there's a strict sniffer test. If you just need OBD and visual hi-flows should be fine. If you just have OBD, you can try to trick it and get away with no cats.
