Inspection & Road Tax

 In Singapore, motorcycle inspection and road tax are essential requirements for all motorcycle owners to ensure road safety and compliance with regulations. Before a motorcycle can be used on the road, it must undergo a mandatory vehicle inspection to ensure that it meets safety and emissions standards set by the Land Transport Authority (LTA).

The inspection covers various aspects of the motorcycle, including brakes, lights, tires, and emissions, to ensure that it is in a roadworthy condition. Motorcycle owners are required to schedule and pass the inspection at authorized inspection centers before they can renew their road tax and continue using the motorcycle on the road.

Road tax in Singapore is a recurring fee that motorcycle owners must pay annually to the LTA for the privilege of using public roads. The amount of road tax is determined by the engine capacity of the motorcycle and is used to fund road maintenance and infrastructure development projects.

Failure to renew road tax or comply with the inspection requirements can result in penalties, fines, or even the immobilization of the motorcycle. Therefore, it is important for motorcycle owners in Singapore to stay up to date with their inspection schedules and road tax payments to avoid any legal issues and ensure the safety and roadworthiness of their vehicles.
