Vehicle inspection services

Mandatory technical control (MTC) is a periodic check of the technical condition of wheeled vehicles (WV) and their construction.

Which vehicles are subject to MTC

Article 35 of the Law of Ukraine «On Road Traffic» states that technical inspection is mandatory for certain categories of wheeled vehicles:

  • cars used for commercial purposes;
  • trucks;
  • taxi;
  • buses;
  • special transport for transporting dangerous goods;
  • trailers

Depending on the technical characteristics, type of construction and field of use, vehicles must undergo a technical inspection with a certain frequency:

  • passenger cars or cargo transportation (for the purpose of profit), trucks (up to 3.5 tons) and their trailers, which have been in operation for up to 2 years, undergo MTC every 2 years;
  • carry out diagnostics of taxis and trucks (from 3.5 tons) and their trailers – they must every year;
