Important information about a private number plate

There is one main rule to understand when buying a private number plate. You can not make your car appear younger than it actually is. Some registrations we advertise are dateless and can go on any age vehicle, if you are unsure please contact us for free expert advice. See our Plate Guide Lines


Registration transfer

Our experienced team at RegHunter are happy to take care of all registration transfer paperwork with the DVLA. All you need to do is send us your V5 to enable us to transfer the private number plate onto the chosen vehicle, in most instances within 7 days.

Number plate design

DVLA have strict regulatations regarding fonts and spacings on your number plate. Size, colour, reflectivity and decoration must also conform to their strict guide lines. We supply a set of number plates from £25 including delivered.

  • If The Recipient Already Has A Mark, Can I Transfer Both At The Same Time?

    Yes, this is called a double transfer. It poses no problem for the team at RegHunter, but you shall need to immediately supply all documents of the third vehicle involved. An extra cheque of £80 payable to the Department of Transport is required.

    If no third vehicle is involved, then the mark can be retained on a Department of Transport retention certificate in accordance with governing regulations. The current fee for this is £80.

  • What Will Happen If My Vehicle Is Scrapped?

    When a vehicle is scrapped and ceases to exist, its registration number is cancelled. You will no longer be able to transfer its registration number. The person who breaks up or destroys the vehicle must notify the governing bodies that the vehicle has been scrapped and return the V5 registration document.

  • I’ve Received My Tax Disc and MOT, but not my V5 (log book), Where Is It?

    After your transfer is complete, the V5 log book is sent to the DVLA in Swansea for the necessary amendments to be made. This can take up to several weeks after the transfer is completed. You can use your new plates as soon as you receive the new V5 log book bearing the new registration.

  • Can I Pay Using Methods Other Than Credit or Debit Card?

    We accept most major credit and debit (except Amex), however, you will save on the 2.5% +vat credit card processing fee when using your bank debit card. You can also pay via Cheque, the easiest way for you to pay is through our online payment facility. We also offer many finance options if you can not afford the plate in full (subject to credit checks).

  • How Long Will My Transfer Take?

    On average, registration transfers take two to three weeks. But our team at RegHunters endeavours to ensure every transfer is completed as quickly as possible. However, we will need you to help us, we can not start the process until we have received all of the required documents. Once all documents are received and passed over to DOT, your plate transfer should run as smoothly as possible.
