Month and year are on tbe windscreen sticker, actual day of the month is on the paperwork you're obliged to carry in the car.

Presumably someone has told you the sticker says 12/21 in which case it's either already already run out or will on the 31st at the very latest.

The MiDGT app will tell you exactly when an ITV is due but you will need a digital certificate to register on that.

Best option would be to book a test for the 29th and take the car DIRECTLY there when you arrive.

Technically if it's already expired you shouldn't drive the car but if you have an appointment and are on the way to it the cops will usually wave you on, worst case it's a €200 fine reduced to €100 if paid within 21 days.

An expired ITV does NOT invalidate your insurance!
