How Much is the Vehicle Exhaust Test?
Exhaust Emission Test Cost
The cost of exhaust emissions testing is one of the most frequently asked questions by those who want to get this test done. So, how much does the exhaust emission test cost? Last year, the exhaust emission fee was 110 TL, but in 2023 it will rise to 117 TL including VAT. However, it's worth noting that exhaust emission test values vary depending on the type of motor vehicle. Exhaust emissions are measured differently for diesel vehicles, gasoline vehicles with catalytic converters, and gasoline and LPG vehicles. First, the exhaust system should be checked and if there is a problem, it should be fixed. If there is no issue with the exhaust, then there is no problem with the vehicle's measurements. If you want to get an exhaust emission measurement at a TÜV TÜRK station, you should make an appointment through the TÜV TÜRK website. Then, go to the station and have the vehicle inspected by the authorities. (You can go to an authorized company in your city to perform the exhaust emission test.)
How Much is the Exhaust Test Fine?
Exhaust test fines can now be directly monitored by traffic cameras like Mobese cameras. For example, when you pass under a standard camera like a Mobese on the highway, the system automatically queries your vehicle's license plate and checks whether your vehicle has undergone an exhaust emission test. If your vehicle's exhaust test is overdue and you are traveling, the system will automatically send a fine to your address. The exhaust test fine is generally a monetary penalty applied to those who have not completed their exhaust emission test. If a person is found to have not properly completed the exhaust emission measurement, a fine of 6,227 TL is applied. In addition to this fine, if you modify your vehicle by changing its exhaust system, you will be fined 12,561 TL. For this reason, it is recommended that you complete your exhaust test before the last day, especially if the test is due soon.
How Much is the Vehicle Inspection?
Before answering the question of how much a vehicle inspection costs, it's useful to address the most frequently asked questions related to vehicle inspections. First, you should make an appointment with the TÜVTÜRK company for your vehicle inspection when your inspection date is approaching. After making the appointment, you will be required to present documents such as traffic insurance policy, vehicle registration, exhaust test documents, and identification card when you go to the inspection station. Additionally, before the inspection, any fines incurred by the vehicle owner or the vehicle itself and any outstanding tax debts must be paid. If you have any debts at the time of the inspection, your appointment will be canceled.
Passenger Vehicle Inspection Cost
Passenger vehicle inspections are done periodically every 2 years. In 2023, the passenger vehicle inspection fee has been updated to 1,130 TL. If any serious faults are identified during the inspection, a free re-inspection will be conducted once.
Commercial Vehicle Inspection Cost
Commercial vehicle inspections are done annually, in addition to the passenger vehicle inspections. In 2023, the inspection fee for commercial vehicles is set at 1,528 TL. Commercial vehicles can benefit from all the services available to passenger vehicles.
