Certificate of Inspection
Certificate of Inspection (COI) vehicles (such as heavy vehicles, licensed tow trucks, buses, taxis, limousines and booked hire vehicles) registered in Advance Auto Mechanical and panel Repairs may need to have a periodic or programmed inspection to check minimum vehicle safety standards. A COI is issued when the vehicle passes the inspection.
Owners of registered COI vehicles must have a current COI at all times, unless exempt. You will not be able to renew your registration until you have a current COI, so it pays to plan to have your vehicle checked for defects and book the inspection before the expiry date.
The vehicle must be presented in a clean condition and free of excessive grease to ensure the components can be inspected.
The vehicle should be checked for defects and have any necessary repairs completed before presentation for a COI to prevent the need for a re-inspection.
COI vehicles
Depending on your vehicle type, a COI can be obtained from either a Transport and Main Roads inspection centre or an approved inspection station accredited by Transport and Main Roads.
