Do imported motorcycles need an MOT to register a USA import?
This is one of the most common questions we receive.
The answer depends on the age of the motorcycle and its circumstances.
Most motorcycles over 40 years old may qualify for MOT exemption, but an MOT may still be useful or required during the registration process depending on the situation.
If you've recently imported a motorcycle and are unsure whether it needs an MOT, it's worth checking before submitting your DVLA application.
If in doubt, seek advice from the DVLA before applying.
