MOT reminder service for UK fleets

For fleets, sole traders and owner-operators in the UK. Track every vehicle's MOT due date beside road tax, insurance and service reminders. Email alerts go out before a missed renewal turns into a parked van and a £1,000 fine.

What happens when an MOT is missed

Driving without a valid MOT can lead to a fine of up to £1,000. A vehicle found to be unroadworthy can lead to a larger fine, penalty points and disqualification. The operator may also lose working time while the vehicle is tested or repaired.

Keeping the due date beside the vehicle record gives the person responsible time to book the test, deal with advisories and plan around garage availability.

How Fleetkeep's MOT reminders work

Type your registration into Fleetkeep and the MOT record is checked against official DVSA data. The dashboard shows the due date beside road tax, insurance and service reminders, so you can review the whole vehicle without retyping dates into a separate sheet. From there, the reminder schedule is fixed and predictable:

• 60 days out: early email. Enough time to plan around garage availability.
• 30 days out: second email. Time to book the test, especially if your usual garage is busy in the autumn.
• 14 days out: third email. By this point you should have a booking. If not, this is the nudge.
• 7 days out: final email. If the test has not happened, this is your last chance to avoid driving on an expired certificate.

Reminders go to your inbox plus any verified reminder recipients you add for operations, partners or managers. You can find every vehicle's status in the dashboard at any time, sorted by soonest renewal.

MOT email reminders and dashboard reminders

Fleetkeep sends 60, 30, 14 and 7 day MOT reminder emails, shows the MOT date in the dashboard, and lets you add verified reminder recipients so the reminder is not tied to one inbox.

What makes an MOT reminder service useful for fleets?

A basic MOT reminder can warn one driver before one certificate expires. A fleet MOT reminder service needs more context: which vehicle is due next, whether the test is booked, who owns the action, and whether the same vehicle also has road tax, insurance or service work due.

Fleetkeep keeps that in one dashboard. The MOT reminder email is the nudge, but the queue is what lets an operator decide which vehicle needs attention first.

If you are managing several renewals at once, the Fleetkeep workflow keeps MOT, road tax, insurance and service dates in one queue. The fleet compliance calendar is useful when you want to plan the year around known MOT and tax pinch points.
