Vehicle tax check
Driving an untaxed vehicle is illegal. Always verify the tax status of a used car before purchase.
Is vehicle tax transferable?
No. Vehicle tax is not transferred when a vehicle is sold. The seller is refunded any remaining tax, and the new keeper must tax the vehicle before driving it.
What are the penalties?
Driving without tax can result in a fine of up to £1,000 and your vehicle being clamped or impounded.
