Tax Your Vehicle Online
You can now apply for a new tax disc or, if you intend to take the vehicle off the road, declare Statutory Off Road Notification, known as SORN, directly over the internet.
You can also use the Vehicle Enquiry service to check what information DVLA holds on its database about a vehicle.
How does it work?
You tell them the vehicle. You will need either the 16 digit reference number shown on your renewal reminder, or the 11 digit reference number from your Registration Document/Certificate (also known as the Logbook) and your vehicle registration mark (number plate).
For a new tax disc they check the vehicle is insured and, if applicable has a new style MOT Test Certificate/GVT Test Certificate or entitlement to disability exemption.
You choose the tax disc you want, 6 or 12 months, and then enter your payment card details.
You should receive the new tax disc in the post within 5 working days or a SORN confirmation letter within 4 weeks.
