Inspection FAQ
Common Questions About Safety Certificates
How long is an Ontario safety certificate good for?
Once issued, the certificate is valid for 36 days. This gives you enough time to take the paperwork to the licensing office to register your vehicle.
Do I need a safety inspection if I am giving my car to a family member?
In most cases, yes. When the ownership of a vehicle changes, the province usually requires a new safety certificate to confirm that the car remains fit for the road.
What happens if my vehicle does not pass the inspection?
If your car fails, you will receive a list of the items that need to be fixed. Once those repairs are made, the vehicle can be checked again to receive the final safety certificate.
