The Motor Vehicle Periodic Inspection (MVPI) wing, part of the General Traffic Department, has made a significant change to ensure the efficiency and convenience of periodic vehicle inspections in Saudi Arabia. Effective from May 1, 2023, booking an online appointment for the Periodic Technical Inspection (Fahas) is now mandatory for all types of vehicles.

Easy Online Booking: Vehicle owners can book their appointments hassle-free through the MVPI electronic platform at vi.vsafety.sa. The process involves entering personal and vehicle details, selecting the type of inspection, region, MVPI center, and preferred date and time. A verification code is sent to your mobile for confirmation.

Why MVPI Matters: The MVPI inspection is an essential yearly requirement in Saudi Arabia to ensure vehicle safety and environmental compliance. Checks cover various aspects, including oil leakage, steering, suspension, brakes, lights, tires, and emissions. If issues are found, repairs are necessary before re-inspection.

Efficient Service: The Saudi Standards, Metrology, and Quality Organization (SASO) introduced online appointments to improve efficiency. Appointments are now available for 50% of the available tracks at MVPI stations across the Kingdom, reducing waiting times and streamlining the inspection process.

SASO's Commitment: SASO is dedicated to enhancing the appointment booking mechanism to enhance the experience for vehicle owners and simplify the inspection process. An electronic platform helps you find the nearest inspection centers and secure a suitable appointment.

Digital Reports: Once the inspection is complete, the vehicle inspection report will be electronically delivered to you in coordination with relevant authorities.
