The Department of Road Transport of the Ministry of Transport, Communications and Works announces that as of Tuesday, May 14, 2024, the periodic technical inspection for motorcycles (two-wheeled, three-wheeled and four-wheeled) will be implemented.

According to an announcement, for this purpose, licenses have been granted to 16 Private Technical Inspection Centers for Vehicles (IKTEO), which are listed in the list posted on the website of the Department of Road Transport.  https://www.mcw.gov.cy/mcw/RTD/rtd.nsf/All/D2CAAD78E322F1D6C2258B18003B7A0F/$file/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%AC%CE%BB%CE%BF%CE%B3%CE%BF%CF%82%20%CE%99%CE%9A%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%9F%20%CF%80%CE%B1%CE%B3%CE%BA%CF%85%CF%80%CF%81%CE%B9%CE%B1-09.05.2024.pdf

From May 14, 2024, the registration or re-registration of a used motorcycle will be done only after a successful technical inspection and presentation of the certificate of suitability, it said.

As part of ensuring road safety, all registered motorcycles will be invited for roadworthiness testing.

Owners of registered motorcycles will be informed about the time within which they will carry out a technical inspection of their vehicle by sending a message (sms) and, therefore, are invited to update their contact details by subscribing to the online services of the Department of Road Transport, the announcement concludes.
