Private Vehicle Testing - NCT
Private Vehicles are required to have passed an NCT (National Car Test) in order to be concidered road worthy. The NCT is required after the first four years of the vehicles life, and every two years thereafter. Please note that it is NOT necessary to have passed your NCT in order to tax your vehicle.

Commercial Vehicle Testing - DOE/CRW
Commercial vehicles are required to have passed a DOE (Department of Environment) test in order to obtain a CRW (Certivicate of Roadworthiness.) All commercial vehicles are required to untertake a DOE test once the vehicle is one year old and every year thereafter.
DOE tests are carried out by specifically appointed garages in the county (see below.) When the vehicle has passed the test, the Garage will give a Test Pass Statement. This is NOT the Certificate of Roadworthiness! This pass statement must be produced at the Motor Tax Office with a fee of €6 for vehicle under 3500 kgs. and €13 for vehicle over 3500kgs. in order to obtain the CRW.
Please note that unlike Private vehicles, if a DOE is due on the vehicle at the time of taxing, the vehicle CANNOT be taxed without submitting a DOE Pass Statement with €6.00/€13.00 as appropriate.
