Tachograph FAQs
How often do tachographs need calibrating?
Digital tachographs: every 2 years. Analogue tachographs: inspection every 2 years, full recalibration every 6 years. Calibration is also required after vehicle registration changes, alterations to tyre size, or accident repairs.
Are you an approved centre?
Yes—we are VOSA/DVSA-approved for analogue and digital tachograph calibration.
Do you offer retrofits for international journeys?
Yes. We install and retrofit Smart Tachograph 2 units, mandatory for vehicles undertaking international journeys. From August 2025, all trucks and buses used internationally must be fitted with Smart Tachograph 2, including older vehicles.
Do I need Smart Tachograph 2 if I only operate in the UK?
No. Suppose your vehicles are used only within the UK. In that case, you can continue with your existing analogue or digital tachograph unless you register a new vehicle, which will already be required to have Smart Tachograph 2 fitted.
Where can I book?
At our Newmarket, Sleaford, and Peterborough workshops.
