Question

I've moved to B.C. Does my vehicle have to be inspected?

Answer

Yes. Most used vehicles being registered in B.C. for the first time or returning to B.C. after being registered elsewhere must pass a mechanical safety inspection. Only designated B.C. inspection facilities can do these inspections. After passing an inspection, your vehicle may be registered, licensed and insured.

Inspection facilities

To locate an inspection facility near you, please visit the Ministry of Transportation website for a list of inspection facilities, or look in the Yellow Pages under “Vehicle Inspection Service”
