How long is a Safety Standards Certificate valid?

36 days
6 months
12 months
30 days

The correct answer is: 36 days

The validity of a Safety Standards Certificate is crucial for ensuring that a vehicle complies with safety regulations. In Ontario, where OMVIC operates, a Safety Standards Certificate is valid for 36 days from the date of issuance. This short validity period is designed to encourage timely inspections and ensure that vehicles are safe for public road use. After this 36-day period, the certificate will no longer be considered valid, meaning that if the vehicle has not been registered or sold within that timeframe, a new inspection will be required to obtain a new certificate. This regulation helps maintain high safety standards on the roads, ensuring that vehicles do not remain in the market without the necessary checks for an extended period.
