Great Britain

Provisional GB approval for applicable G8/G9 configurations.

On 2 October 2026, the Vehicle Certification Agency issued DOBO MOTORS LTD Provisional GB Type Approval p13*167/2013*00592*02 for applicable vehicle configurations corresponding to EU whole-vehicle type approval e13*167/2013*00592*02.

The provisional approval applies only in Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales) and only to the vehicle types and configurations described in the applicable approval documentation. It is subject to the conditions stated by the Vehicle Certification Agency and the continuing validity of the corresponding EU whole-vehicle type approval.

This is not comprehensive GB type approval and it does not apply in Northern Ireland. The VCA communication states that the provisional approval remains in force for two years from its issue date, unless cancelled or suspended, and subject to the applicable approval conditions. This statement does not confirm future continuing validity. Current validity and the applicable approved configuration must be confirmed before ordering or registration.

Official approval documents are shared only after controlled business review.

Before placing an order

A documentation review in four steps.

  1. Identify the destination

    Specify the country, intended use and sales channel. These are the starting points for the documentation discussion.

  2. Match the configuration

    Confirm the model, variant, equipment and approval reference applicable to the vehicle being offered.

  3. Review the documents

    Ask for the applicable approval information, COC availability and vehicle documentation. Detailed materials are shared after manual review.

  4. Confirm local requirements

    Review registration, licensing and permitted use with the relevant local authority or your qualified adviser before committing.

An approval reference does not mean that every variant, modification or use is permitted in every market. Final requirements depend on the destination and certified configuration.

Keep the evidence distinct

Type approval is not the same as internal testing.

Some product pages also describe manufacturer-reported durability validation. These internal figures are separate from statutory type-approval testing and are not presented as independent certification results.

For a purchasing decision, identify which document supports each requirement and ensure it applies to the configuration being ordered.
