Manufacturer, Importer and Builder

MIB Registration

Are you registered to put vehicles on South African roads?

Our Experience & Impact

MIB manufacturer, importer and builder registration handled end to end
Proxy guidance where a proxy arrangement is the right structure
Local body builder support for documentation readiness and compliance pathway

Before a vehicle can be registered it has to exist in the system under your name. We handle Manufacturer, Importer and Builder registration, updates and proxy guidance, and support local body builders with documentation readiness and compliance pathway understanding.

What this covers

New MIB setup

Registration as a Manufacturer, Importer or Builder, taken from application through to confirmation.

MIB updates

Company detail changes and scope updates kept current so registrations do not lapse quietly.

Proxy guidance

Practical guidance where a proxy arrangement is the right structure for your operation.

Body builder support

Regulatory matters, MIB-related guidance and documentation readiness for local body builders.

Compliance pathway understanding

What your obligations actually are under the National Road Traffic Act and the Vehicle Compulsory Specifications.

Documentation readiness

Records structured so they survive an inspection rather than being assembled during one.

Frequently asked questions

Who needs an MIB registration?

Anyone manufacturing, importing or building vehicles for the South African market. If your name goes on the vehicle, you need to be in the system.

We already have an MIB. Why would we need updates?

Company details, scope and responsible persons change. An MIB that no longer reflects your operation creates problems at exactly the moment you need it to work.

Do you work with small body builders?

Yes. Local body builder support is a standing part of the practice, covering regulatory matters, MIB guidance and getting documentation into a state that will hold up.

What do you need approved?
