MOT Reminders

What is an MOT?

An MOT is an annual test required for vehicles over 3 years old in the UK. It checks that your vehicle meets road safety and environmental standards.

The test covers essential items like brakes, lights, tyres, exhaust emissions, and seatbelts. Without a valid MOT certificate, it's illegal to drive your vehicle on public roads (except to a pre-booked MOT test).

Consequences of Missing Your MOT

  • Up to £1,000 fine
  • Insurance may be invalidated
  • Roadside police checks

Tax Reminders

What is Vehicle Tax?

Vehicle Excise Duty (VED), commonly called road tax, is an annual tax you must pay to drive on UK roads. The amount depends on your vehicle's CO2 emissions, fuel type, and when it was registered.

Some vehicles are exempt, including electric cars and historic vehicles over 40 years old. Even if your vehicle is exempt, you still need to "tax" it (at £0) to drive it legally.

Consequences of Untaxed Vehicles

  • Up to £1,000 fine
  • Vehicle can be clamped
  • Vehicle can be impounded
  • ANPR cameras detect untaxed vehicles

Frequently Asked Questions

Your MOT expires exactly one year from the date of your last test. You can check your exact expiry date using our free MOT checker or by adding your vehicle to the Autodue app. We'll automatically sync with DVLA to get your current status.
Vehicle tax (VED) typically renews annually or every 6 months, depending on your payment method. The Autodue app syncs with DVLA to show your exact tax due date and will remind you before it expires.
Driving without a valid MOT is illegal and can result in a fine of up to £1,000. Your vehicle insurance may also be invalidated, leaving you personally liable for any accidents. Police can issue fixed penalty notices during roadside checks.
Driving an untaxed vehicle can result in a fine of up to £1,000. DVLA uses automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras to detect untaxed vehicles. Your car can also be clamped or impounded. If you're not using the vehicle, you must declare it SORN.
You can get your MOT done up to one month (minus a day) before it expires without losing any days. For example, if your MOT expires on 15th March, you can get it tested from 16th February and your new expiry will still be 15th March next year.
