If you want to transfer your plate to a new vehicle you need to let us know.
Before you apply
A licensing officer will need to inspect the new vehicle before you can apply.
To arrange an appointment, use the button to book a taxi vehicle inspection. Once you are logged in, select Vehicle Inspection and then Transfer Plate from the menu and complete the necessary fields.
Completion of vehicle inspection
If the vehicle is satisfactory, you must make an appointment with one of the garages below for a certificate of compliance, unless it has done less than 500 miles.
Vehicle compliance
You will need to make an appointment with either:
Cheriton Motor House: 01303 275795 or Fairways Garage: 01303 872121.
If your vehicle passes the test, the garage will give you a certificate of compliance. This is sent directly to the licensing team by the garage.
Application
After the vehicle passes the inspection and receives a certificate of compliance, you will be able to apply to transfer your plate to the new vehicle.
