If you get a vehicle testing notice you must get your vehicle tested by the due date on the notice.
Get your vehicle tested
Take your vehicle to an EPA-approved vehicle tester.
If your vehicle passes the test, the tester gives you a certificate of compliance.
You then send the certificate of compliance to us. You can submit the certificate online though our portal.
Submit a certificate of compliance(opens in a new window)
If we do not get the certificate of compliance by the due date, we can:
- give you a fine
- suspend your vehicle registration.
We can also fine you if you sell the vehicle before you get a certificate of compliance. If you want to sell your vehicle, contact us.
If your vehicle fails the test
If your vehicle fails the test, you must:
- get your vehicle repaired so that it passes the test
- book and pay for another test from an EPA-approved vehicle tester.
You do not have to have your vehicle repaired or tested at the same place that conducted the first test.
Paying for vehicle tests
You pay the tester to do the test, not us. You have to pay the tester even if your vehicle fails the test.
This payment does not include the cost of any repairs that your vehicle may need.
Approved vehicle testers
For vehicles below 4.5 tonnes, cars and motorcycles, contact one of these EPA-approved vehicle testers to book a test for a certificate of compliance.
