Booking your vehicle test
When applying for a new vehicle licence, you must either book a “Suitability Test” or a Full “Compliance Test” at our Testing Station, located on Stretton Way, Huyton, L36 6JF.
Please be aware that we are currently fully booked for availability of a “Full compliance test” for new vehicle applications and at this current time only Suitability Tests will be available when booking.
- A Suitability Test will be conducted to ensure Licensing Compliance Requirements are met but does not include VOSA MOT Testing requirements. You will be required to submit a valid MOT Test Certificate as part of your application. This MOT Test Certificate must be from a Knowsley Based VOSA approved Testing Station and must be no more than 28 days old at the point of submission.
- A Full Compliance Test will be conducted to cover all current DVSA vehicle test items plus the additional licensing compliance requirements. If you choose this option you will not be required to submit an additional VOSA MOT Certificate with your application. Please see note above.
Please ensure you have fully considered these options and their requirements when you book a test. You will be required to pay the relevant fee by card. You will always be charged for missed appointments. Expenses incurred in submitting a vehicle for a test where the vehicle is found unfit will not be refunded under any circumstances.
You will receive a booking email confirmation, which will state the date and time of your booking and provide details of the next steps. Please check your email junk folder.
