FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common Questions

Alberta requires vehicles registered outside the province to pass an inspection before Alberta licence plates are issued. It must be done at a licensed facility by a licensed journeyperson technician.
Ask the facility to explain each failed item, what repair is needed, and whether the vehicle must return for another inspection. The process can depend on the findings, so ask before authorizing work.
