Cost & procedure of a retest
If you return for the re-test within 21 days and your vehicle has travelled fewer than 4,000 kilometres since it was tested:
- the vehicle does not have to repeat the full test; rather, it is tested only on the failure points from the first test.
- A visual re-test is free, but a retest that requires a test lane has a fee of €43.58
- You should repair vehicle fail items immediately and present the vehicle for re-test as soon as possible.
