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
