How we’re tackling MOT fraud
How we’re tackling MOT fraud
The MOT test sits at the heart of DVSA's mission to keep Britain's roads safer for everyone.
The MOT: keeping our roads safe
It's easy to get caught up in thinking how we should improve the MOT testing service, but it’s also worth reflecting on the importance of the MOT itself and the vital contribution you’re making to road safety.
Checking the status of the MOT testing service
We know that when the MOT testing service is unavailable, your priority is to get a contingency code so that you can carry on working. So that’s why we’ve created a new page which you can visit to see the service’s current status.
Making vehicle technical information available
We’ve received lots of feedback about making technical information about specific vehicles available on the MOT testing service. We’ve already done some work to investigate how we can introduce this to the MOT testing service and we’ve planned more work for the near future.
MOT security card roll-out update
We’ve now started sending out the new MOT security cards to all trade users of the MOT testing service, that’s over 73,000 people. Over the next 6 weeks we’ll be sending around 2,500 cards every day.
Improving how you enter test results

MOT testing service - one year on
This September saw the first year anniversary of the MOT testing service. We look at what's changed since we launched the service and what updates we're planning to introduce in the future.
Why we’re introducing the new MOT security card
In this blog, we look at why the new cards are more secure and how we’re testing their use before the roll out later this year.
Introducing the new MOT security card
You’ll get a brand new security card later this year to replace the current PIN system. This card will make the MOT service more secure by making sure only you can sign into your account.
