How do I know when my vehicle is due for its MOT?

A. Where DFM are the supplier of your vehicle's Road Fund Licence, a reminder letter will be sent 2 months before your MOT is due. Where DFM do not supply your Road Fund Licence, it is your responsibility to arrange an MOT. Please ensure that the vehicle is submitted without delay for MOT, and that the pass certificate is sent to DFM immediately as we are required to obtain the Road Fund Licence (Tax Disc). If a pass certificate has not been obtained by the due date, the vehicle must be taken off the road and not used under any circumstances, except for the journey for pre-arranged MOT test appointment.
