Q1: What are the main transfer rules?

a. You cannot make any vehicle appear to be younger than it actually is
eg: you cannot transfer a B-reg plate onto an A-reg vehicle. The age of your vehicle is the ‘declared manufactured’ or ‘first registered’ date found on your V5 logbook and not necessarily shown by its number plate (as you may have bought a used vehicle already displaying a personalised number plate without realising it).

b. Q Plates are non transferable and you cannot transfer other number plates to Q registered vehicles

c. Only vehicles which are currently taxed (or tax exempt) and have had a valid MOT certificate in the past 6 months, are allowed to use the transfer scheme.
If your Tax or Mot is about to expire we advise you to renew these before applying for a transfer to ensure your transfer is successful.
