Certification of vehicles registered or converted in Ukraine is a critical stage for confirming their compliance with current safety standards and environmental regulations. This process ensures the safe operation of cars on the roads and their compliance with technical requirements.

Why is certification necessary?

Car certification has several important aspects. First, it confirms that the vehicle meets national safety standards and environmental regulations. This is especially important for cars imported from abroad, as different countries may have different safety and environmental requirements. For example, cars from Europe usually already meet Ukrainian requirements, while cars from the USA may require additional inspections and modifications.

Secondly, certification allows you to identify potential technical deficiencies and malfunctions that may occur during the operation of the car. This helps prevent possible accidents and increase overall road safety.

When is recertification required?

After the initial certification, the car receives a certificate of conformity, which is valid for the entire period of operation of the vehicle. However, if changes are made to the design of the car, for example, gas cylinder equipment is installed or the body type is changed, it is necessary to undergo re-certification. This ensures that all changes meet established standards and do not adversely affect the safety of the vehicle.

Stages of car certification

The certification process includes several key stages:

  1. Verification of documents: For certification, it is necessary to provide documents for the car, customs declaration, technical passport, as well as identification documents of the owner.
  2. Technical examination: The car undergoes a thorough inspection for compliance with environmental standards, the condition of lighting devices, speedometer, glass, seat belts and general technical condition.
  3. Conformity assessment: Experts determine whether the car meets all safety requirements and environmental regulations. In case of detection of inconsistencies, the owner is provided with recommendations for their elimination.
  4. Issuance of a certificate: After successfully passing all checks, the car receives a certificate of conformity, which allows its official registration and operation on the territory of Ukraine.

Cost of certification

The cost of certification depends on the type of car and the amount of required inspections. For passenger cars, the price starts from UAH 2,200. The certification process is carried out in specialized laboratories, such as West Auto Hub, which have the necessary equipment and experienced professionals to carry out all the necessary checks.

Benefits of certification

Passing the certification has several significant advantages:

  1. Safety: Ensures that the vehicle meets all safety standards, reducing the risk of accidents and malfunctions.
  2. Ecology: Confirms the car's compliance with environmental standards, helping to reduce environmental pollution.
  3. Legal compliance: Allows you to officially register a car and use it on the territory of Ukraine without violating the law.

Certification of cars is an important stage for ensuring their safe and environmentally friendly operation on the roads of Ukraine. It ensures that all vehicles meet established standards and are ready for safe use.
