EZ4U Auto Care / Out-of-province inspection
Just moved to BC?
Your vehicle will generally need an out-of-province inspection before ICBC will register it. EZ4U Auto Care in Richmond makes it simple — we'll tell you exactly what to bring, quote it up front, and explain anything that needs attention.
What is an out-of-province inspection?
When a vehicle has been registered outside British Columbia — in another province, territory or the U.S. — it generally has to pass a safety inspection at a designated inspection facility before ICBC will register and insure it here.
ICBC sets the official rules, including any exemptions. Read them on ICBC's page on registering a vehicle from outside BC — or call us and we'll talk it through.
