We’re excited to announce the beginning of the future of vehicle approvals tests.  

At DVSA we’ve been working hard to make the IVA and MSVA approvals test process more accessible and efficient for our customers.  

We have started to accept applications from businesses who want to operate a Vehicle Examination Facility (VEF).  

You can read our latest blog on the new Vehicle Examination Facility network, which explains: 

• what a VEF is  

• the benefits that VEFs will deliver for customers and the trade  

• how to apply to become a VEF  

• feedback on how the project is going so far and next steps.  

If you’re interested in applying for VEF status, you can get more information by contacting our team at ATI@DVSA.gov.uk.
