Riteve Open All Week For Last Minute Inspections
For the thousands of drivers and owners of vehicles who still have not been through the vehicle inspection for this year, Riteve is offering the opportunity to do so, as they will be open for the holiday week.

Riteve announced that it will close its stations today (Monday 24) at noon, stay closed tomorrow (Tuesday 25), but will operate normally from Wednesday to Saturday. The stations will be closed Sunday as usual, but will be open on December 31 and January 1 on normal hours.

Having passed the Riteve inspection is a requirement to obtain the 2008 Marchamo, which is due by December 31, after which owners of vehicles and drivers will be fined for not having done so and will have to pay fines and penalties for late payment.

For those whose Riteve inspection is overdue, INS authorities recommend waiting at least three hours after the completion of the inspection to go purchase their marchamo, the time is required for the information to be passed from the Riteve serves to the INS servers that is then available at any of the more than 800 points of sale for the marchamo, which includes all banks and independent insurance agent offices.
