Rules for authorised examiners, testers and testing different types of vehicles - updated.

8 Oct 2025

How the MOT scheme is administered and the rules for authorised examiners, testers and testing different types of vehicles.

Change made:
Appendix 7: Convictions and repute – 2. Convictions general – added ‘This includes cases where a conviction has taken place, but sentencing is pending. When a sentence has been applied the notification must include a DBS certificate dated after the conviction. If sentencing has not been completed a court extract (or extract decree for Scottish convictions) must be included with the notification. When the person has been sentenced, we will require a further DBS certificate (dated after sentencing).’Repute considerations – added ‘offences resulting in incarceration’ to the list of offences that impact on repute.
