  • How Can I Find Out About The Status Of My Transfer?

    The easiest way to stay up-to-date on the status of your transfer is by contacting us during our office hours for a progress report.

  • What Is A Registration Number and Who Has Entitlement To It?

    Registration numbers are not items of property in their own right. They are assigned and may be withdrawn by the Secretary of State as part of the basic registration and licensing process required by law. The registration number is a unique means of identifying a vehicle, primarily for taxation and law enforcement purposes. It is assigned to a specific vehicle rather than its keeper. Unless it is transferred or retained, the registration number will stay with a specific vehicle until it is broken up, destroyed, or sent permanently out of the country. An individual acquires entitlement to a registration number when he or she becomes the registered keeper of the vehicle. When the vehicle is sold, the entitlement to the registration number is automatically transferred to the new registered keeper.

  • How Can I Put My Registration On Hold When I Decide To Sell My Car?

    You will need to compare a V317 application to transfer or retain a vehicle registration number. This currently costs £80.

  • What Happens If I Need To Tax or MOT My Vehicle Whilst The Transfer Is Being Processed?

    There are no problems if your vehicle needs to be Taxed or MOT.

    In the case of taxing your vehicle, you simply send the appropriate fee with a V10 form to us, ensuring that you state the old registration number on the application form. We will then take care of this for you.

    In the case of the new MOT, you must ensure the garage which MOTs the vehicle does it under the old mark. The DVLA’s system will update this automatically once complete.

  • Do You Own All The Registrations You Are Selling?

    No, we do not. Whilst we do have a large number of stock registrations, a lot of those listed on our site come from individuals who are looking to transfer the registrations off of their own vehicles. We also offer a vast range of unissued Government stock.
