When are you too late for an MOT inspection?

When are you late for a MOT inspection? Very simple ... when the MOT date has expired. 11 weeks before the APK inspection expires, you will receive a letter from the RDW. At that time, you still have plenty of time to inspect the vehicle. Two months before the expiration of the inspection, you may already have the car MOT tested. The old expiration date is then extended by 1 or 2 years, depending on the current inspection frequency. If you have the vehicle inspected more than two months before the APK expiration date, your vehicle will receive a new APK expiration date.
