It is (at least used to be) the same in Australia. Here however, it is a yearly inspection and if it fails, it has to be taken back and reinspected. I once had a car (1989 Honda civic) fail because of a tiny bit of rust in the back quarter panels. It meant wrecking an otherwise highly drivable car as the cost of repair was about twice the value of the vehicle.
