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.
The Regional Government has authorised expenditure of up to €13,175,000, plus VAT, for the design and construction of Machico Pavilion. The project will be put out to public tender, with a notice published in the Official Journal of the European Union.
The fourth amendment to the programme agreement between the Region and the Municipality of Machico sets the maximum contribution for the renovation and reconstruction of Porto da Cruz Cemetery at €5,141,706.98. The agreement remains in force until 31 December 2026.
The Region has approved the multi-year allocation of costs for the design and construction of the Machico Pavilion. The total amount is €4,175,000, plus VAT, with the largest share scheduled for 2029.
