When must a car undergo its first technical inspection?
Traffic safety: Rules for the safety of people and cargo, and their identifiers
Explanation
For **motor vehicles that can carry up to nine passengers**, such as passenger cars, the first **technical inspection (ITV)** must be carried out **4 years** from the **date of first registration**. This means that the time is counted from the moment the vehicle was officially registered to circulate, not from its manufacture or importation.
After this first inspection, passenger cars must undergo the ITV every 2 years until they are 10 years old. From 10 years onwards, the inspection is carried out annually. It is important to follow this schedule to ensure that the vehicle remains in good condition and complies with safety regulations.
