Vehicle Inspection Service (VIS)

Enhanced road safety and environmental protection

Business Challenge

Many countries insist that motor vehicles comply with national environmental and safety standards. Governments are now becoming more focused on implementing legislation to reduce road accidents and the environmental impact of non-compliant vehicles. It is widely accepted that vehicles should be subject to regular technical inspection at pre-set intervals throughout their life.

Solution

What is VIS? VIS is a technical inspection service for vehicles. It is performed in accordance with national legislation / regulation and international standards for environmental protection. VIS is essential for countries who wish to ensure that vehicles being used on their roads comply with the national regulations and any other required national standard. VIS may also be used to control the safety and compliance of imported used vehicles.
