Provincial inspections typically include emissions testing and general safety inspections. Inspection requirements can vary for each province. Here are some examples of various requirements for some of the different provinces:

• New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island require annual safety inspections.
• Nova Scotia requires a safety inspection every two years.
• Ontario (southern only) and British Columbia (lower mainland only) require bi-annual emission testing.
• Manitoba requires that a safety inspection must be completed on a newly purchased vehicle (new or used) before it is registered.
