This thorough evaluation aims to certify the safety and condition of your vehicle, ultimately enhancing its performance and longevity while minimizing the risk of breakdowns and accidents.

UNDERSTANDING SAFETY CERTIFICATIONS

A Safety Certification is a crucial document that demonstrates your vehicle has met the minimum safety requirements set forth by the Ministry of Transportation. While this certification does not assess the overall condition of your vehicle, it certifies that your vehicle is fit for the roads at the time of issuance. To obtain a Safety Certification, your vehicle must undergo an inspection at an accredited station where a mechanic will determine its roadworthiness. This certification is a vital step in obtaining a vehicle license plate and is valid for thirty-six days post-inspection.

THE NECESSITY OF A SAFETY CERTIFICATION

Obtaining a Safety Certification is imperative for several reasons:
• It is a prerequisite for acquiring a license plate for your vehicle.
• It must be presented before registering your vehicle, confirming its safety for driving.
• Essential for registering a used car in your name.
• Mandatory if the vehicle is from another province and you wish to use it in a new jurisdiction.
• Required if your vehicle has failed a previous safety inspection or if an earlier certificate has expired.

WHEN IS A VEHICLE SAFETY INSPECTION REQUIRED IN ONTARIO?

• Registration of a Rebuilt Vehicle: A vehicle that has undergone significant repairs due to damage from accidents, fire, or water must be inspected before registration.
