Pay the appeal inspection fee by credit or debit card (DVSA will tell you how to do this after you’ve applied), or using a pre-funded account. It costs the same as the original test.
If your appeal is accepted, your vehicle will be re-examined by an independent inspector.
Do not modify or carry out any work on the vehicle before the appeal inspection. It could affect the outcome of the appeal if you do.
