• This is a document certifying that a vehicle is road-worthy and can be driven on the Ethiopian road for a stated period of time.
• This document is mandatory for all commercial vehicles and its validity is for a period of 6 months. For private vehicles, however, that are older than 5 years, the road-worthiness certificate is to be obtained once a year. The road-worthiness certification process has been adopted in most of the regions in Ethiopia.
• You must have your motor vehicle tested for road worthiness before you register it in your name. If your motor vehicle is used for public transport or is a heavy-load vehicle (excluding buses), you must take it to be tested for road worthiness every year before you renew the motor vehicle license. A bus must be tested for road worthiness every six months.
