The Regional Government of Madeira has approved a new fee schedule for vehicle inspections and reinspections, reflecting a 10.41% update corresponding to inflation.
Ordinance no. 178/2026, published in the Official Journal of the Autonomous Region of Madeira, establishes the new fees for carrying out technical inspections and reinspections of vehicles in the Region. This update, which comes into force the day after publication, is based on the average annual inflation rate of 10.41%, set by the Regional Directorate of Statistics in December 2025.
The decree also clarifies that reinspections are free of charge when the reason is exclusively the failure to provide proof of mandatory civil liability motor insurance at the time of inspection. Ordinance no. 526/2025, of September 19, is revoked with the entry into force of this new regime.
Ordinance No. 521/2026 authorizes the distribution of 10.02 million euros for the second phase of the new road link between Quebradas and Amparo.
Ordinance No. 498/2026 modifies the financial phasing for the reconstruction of hydraulic infrastructures upstream of ER 101, in Ribeiro da Ponta Delgada (Enxurros), representing a total investment of 1.38 million euros.
The Council of Government has approved a resolution authorizing an expenditure of 6.72 million euros for a slope stabilization and protection project on Via Expresso 2, between the Ladeira da Vinha and João Delgado tunnels.
