Importing V55 completion type approval (1 Viewer)

[CazPaul]

Question 51, is the vehicle exempt from type approval? If yes give reasons why.

2005 Iveco concorde concerto 3 litre, Is it exempt? I know it doesn't require a CoC.

This is from Gov.uk website on Type Approval.

You don’t need vehicle approval for:

• heavy goods vehicles (more than 3,500kg maximum weight) over 25 years old
• light goods vehicles (3,500kg maximum weight or less) over 10 years old
• cars and minibuses with 8 passenger seats or less (not including the driver) over 10 years old
• buses, coaches and minibuses with more than 8 passenger seats (not including the driver) built by a single manufacturer before 29 July 2010
• buses, coaches and minibuses with more than 8 passenger seats (not including the driver) with different body and chassis manufacturers, made before 29 July 2011
• tracked vehicles, for example a vehicle that runs on tracks rather than wheels
• vehicles designed and constructed for use on construction sites, quarries, ports and airports
• vehicles designed and constructed for and used by the armed services, fire and rescue forces, or used in maintaining public order

These will be the two relevant ones which DONT need T/A.
If yours is over 3500kg then yes, it needs T/A

I've imported a few old motorbikes from Europe and the U.S. and have had to submit a NOVA declaration with each when applying to register them in U.K.
