Why is my MOT certificate not showing online?

If you are trying to access your MOT Test results online, there are a few reasons as to why they are currently not showing. These include the following:

Recency of the test

If the test was only recently carried out, it can take a couple of days before the records are available. Test results are only available after the test centre has recorded them in the national database.

Incorrect details

Make sure that you have entered in the correct details. A typo in the registration number or the VIN may be the reason the results you are expecting do not show.

MOT exemption

If the vehicle you are trying to find the results for is exempt from MOTs, then you will not be able to find any records. This could include a brand-new vehicle (one that is under 3 years of age and has not had an MOT Test carried out yet) or a vintage/classic car.
