Apply for a vehicle test or certificate for a lorry or trailer

Use this service to book a test for your lorry or trailer. Do this if:

  • you’ve altered its chassis, weight, tyres or brakes (a ‘notifiable alteration’)
  • you want to transport dangerous goods (known as ADR)
  • it has never had an MOT before
  • you want to get it approved for the TIR system for quicker border crossings

You can also apply for:

  • a replacement ministry plate or plating certificate
  • a replacement ADR certificate for transporting dangerous goods
  • a keeper’s certificate to prove you’re responsible for your lorry or trailer
  • an abnormal load trailer keeper’s certificate so you can use it abroad
  • permission to supply a large goods trailer
