Book your van APK (MOT) online in Rotterdam

At our garage, the APK for a van costs € 125, including VAT, the inspection report and registering the result with the RDW. This applies to diesel, petrol and electric vans, also when a particle counter test is needed. For an LPG van, please call us for the price. If you combine the APK with a major service, the APK is free. Repairs are not included.

That depends on how it is registered. If it is registered as a van, known in Dutch as a grijs kenteken (grey registration), book it with this form. If it is registered as a passenger car, as many Caddys with rear seats are, the APK costs € 50 or € 60. Book it on our car APK booking page. You can check the registration on the RDW website with your number plate, or call us. Read more about the grey registration.

Vans of all makes up to 3,500 kg maximum authorised mass, such as the Volkswagen Caddy, Transporter and Crafter, the Mercedes-Benz Vito and Sprinter, the Ford Transit, the Renault Trafic and Master, the Toyota Proace and the Peugeot Partner, Expert and Boxer. We have lifts that are suitable for vans up to 3,500 kg. Is your van very long or high, or does it have a body conversion? Please call us before you book.

On the day of your appointment, bring your van between 8.00 and 8.30. We call you when it is ready. The APK is on weekdays only, because APK results can only be registered with the RDW on weekdays. On Saturday we do repairs, servicing, tyres and air conditioning, but no APK.

Pick a date and time in the booking form above. You see straight away which days are available. You can have the APK done up to two months before the expiry date without losing any time, because the new expiry date is counted from the old one. Booking early also leaves time for repairs, so your van is not off the road for longer than needed.

According to the RDW (in Dutch), that depends on the fuel. A diesel or gas van needs its first APK after three years and then every year. A petrol or electric van needs its first APK after four years, then twice every two years, and every year after that.

Yes, book as soon as possible. According to the ANWB (in Dutch), you may then only drive straight to the inspection, within two months of the expiry date and with your appointment confirmation with you. Read more on our APK expired page.

The keys of your van and the wheel lock key, if your wheels have locking wheel nuts. Your previous APK report is useful if you still have it. Please make sure the load area is accessible. Bring other documents only if we ask for them.

You get a list of the points that need repairing, and we tell you what the repair costs. Small points can often be repaired during the inspection, if you agree. We only carry out repairs after you agree. After the repair, the van is inspected again. Please note that we do not replace or adjust lights or headlights.

You pay after the inspection, at the garage, by debit card or in cash. We do not accept credit cards. Once we have worked together for a while, regular business customers in the Netherlands can pay by invoice, by arrangement.

Yes. We carry out the APK and the service in one visit, so your van is off the road only once. If you combine the APK with a major service, the APK is free. Do you have several vans? Read more about van repair and fleet maintenance.
