on process:

cate of Conformity (CoC)

vehicle.

General inspection (in Germany)
In common with passenger cars new vans with a permissible total
weight up to 3.5 tonnes do not have to undergo a MOT (German
equivalent) for the first three years after initial registration.
The MOT (German equivalent) can be carried out by the German
Technical Surveyance Association (TÜV), the German Engine
Vehicle Surveyance Association (DEKRA) or an officially appro-
ved expert.
