Book a vehicle test
If you import or modify a vehicle, or if you have been ordered to have it re-tested after a roadworthiness test, the vehicle needs to be tested.
Do you want to change or cancel your session for a vehicle test?
Before you book a vehicle test
When you book a session for a vehicle test, this is considered an application to have your vehicle approved. You are therefore responsible for providing accurate information about yourself and your vehicle. If you book a test on behalf of someone else, you need to be able to document that you are authorised to apply for approval of the vehicle on the owner's behalf when you book a test.
There cannot be any active approval applications under processing for the vehicle you are booking a test for. Tests for first-time approval are only for vehicles that have not been previously approved in Norway.
If you need to book a test for an imported vehicle, the vehicle must be cleared through customs before you book the test.
Booking a vehicle test
When you log in, you will find an overview of the various tests you can book, which Driver and Vehicle Licensing Offices offer what kinds of tests, and whether they have available test sessions.
We do not perform roadworthiness tests. If you are looking for a place to carry out periodic roadworthiness test, you can find an approved garage.
Change or cancel a booking
Change a booking
You can change a test session booking up to 14:00 on the business day before the test. These are the changes that you can make:
- Change the time of the vehicle test – up to 3 times
- Change the place for the vehicle test (change Driver and Vehicle Licensing Office) – one time only
- Change what vehicle is to be tested – one time only
Cancellations and refunds
You can also cancel a booked vehicle test. If you have already paid for the vehicle test you wish to cancel, you can request a refund. To get a refund, you must cancel no later than one business day, and at least 24 hours, before the time of the booked test.
In order to receive a refund you need to send us a written request through our contact form (Norwegian only). In the field where you are asked to describe your enquiry, you should write that you wish to have the vehicle test fee refunded, along with your date of birth or organisation number (depending on whether you paid privately or as a company) and bank account number.
If you paid online, please enclose a copy of the receipt you received under "Messages" and quote the reference number. If you paid at a Driver and Vehicle Licensing Office, please enclose a copy of the receipt you received when you paid there.
Sometimes test sessions may be cancelled by us due to unforeseen circumstances at the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Office. If this happens, you will receive an SMS explaining this and redirecting you to the facility where you can book a new session online. If you have already paid for the test, you do not need to do anything. The payment will apply also to your new booking.
Consequences of misuse of the booking facility
Misuse of the booking facility means deliberately making a booking where the time, place or vehicle is not a genuine part of the application for approval of the vehicle.
For example, a booking is not considered genuine if the owner’s consent has not been obtained before the booking is made. Another example is if you book test sessions at a Driver and Vehicle Licensing Office where you repeatedly fail to turn up.
Consequences of misuse
If you misuse the booking facility, the following may be the consequences:
- Restricted access to booking new vehicle tests
A limit may be imposed as to how many test sessions you need per week, based on the average number of test sessions you have used per week. - Blocked access to booking tests at a specific Driver and Vehicle Licensing Office (traffikstasjon)
A block may be imposed so that it is not possible to book a test at a specific Driver and Vehicle Licensing Office for a limited period of time - Suspended access to the booking facility
If you repeatedly misuse the booking facility, your access to booking vehicle tests may be suspended for a limited period of time.
