Book a Taxi Compliance Test | Sevenoaks District Council

Book a Taxi Compliance Test

Compliance tests for taxis (hackney carriage and private hire vehicles) are carried out at our MOT station in Sundridge, near Sevenoaks.

The test is an inspection to make sure each vehicle is in good mechanical order and complies with Sevenoaks District Council’s Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Licensing Policy. When a taxi vehicle has a compliance test, the approved garage will also carry out an MOT.

When booking a test, you are accepting our terms and conditions.
