New tax rules??

[mailee]

Right now I know the vehicle tax law has changed and you can't transfer the tax on a vehicle to a new owner now.....(fine, another way of making money from the poor motorists yet again ) After buying another bike i went online to tax it only to be notified that I had to do it at the post office as I didn't have the reminder code? So my question is this: What happens if you buy the vehicle and want to ride it home? You can change the insurance online with no problem but you can't the tax?? So this means that unless you get the vehicle delivered (Which I had) or have a van to collect it you can't take the vehicle there and then! This is progress!

You don't need the reminder number if you have the V5c and the Registration

I did have but it still wouldn't let me tax it! just came up with a sentence in red notifying me I have to do it at the post office!

Sorry about this. I take it back. I just tried again and it worked! I guess I must have done something wrong first time.

would still show up as taxed as v5 takes a couple of days to arrive at dvla and be changed

so you can still ride it and not worry then go into a post office at first chance

When you buy the new vehicle take the new keeper slip (green bit you get as a receipt) straight round to the post office.

You don't need to take anything else.
