| Inspections
for vehicles new to B.C. |
|
All vehicles (Including trailers or motorcycles) being registered in B.C. for
the first time or returning to B.C. after being registered outside the
province, must pass a mechanical safety inspection at a designated B.C.
inspection facility before they can be registered, licensed and insured. |
| Rebuilt,
altered or constructed vehicles (including kit vehicles) require a structural
inspection along with the mechanical safety inspection. |
| You can
get a list of inspection facilities from Autoplan
brokers or driver
licensing offices. Once your vehicle has passed the inspection, take your
vehicle with a copy of the inspection report and your current registration
to an Autoplan broker to register and insure your vehicle in B.C. The broker
must be able to visually check the Vehicle Identification Number
[click
for definition] on the vehicle. |
| If you
are bringing a vehicle into Canada from another country, check the requirements
on the
Transport Canada web site and the Registrar
of Imported Vehicles site. Or you can call the Registrar of Imported Vehicles
office at 1-888-848-8240. |
