3 or 12 month exemptions have been given to eligible vehicle and trailers (except first test vehicles). Vehicles that are due their first test can only be completed the month before they are due.
To find out you new test expiry date you can use MOT test history service
In addition you can also use this spreadsheet of the vehicles and trailers that have had exemptions applied to their original test dates.
You will need to check the MOT history to see if your MOT exemption has been applied as the spreadsheet doesn’t contain all vehicles and trailers due their first test.
