Renew a vehicle licence

Once the vehicle has successfully passed its compliance test, you will need to submit the following documents for your licence to be issued:

• Vehicle compliance test certificate.
• Completed  hackney carriage vehicle renewal application (PDF) [314KB] (opens new window)  or  private hire vehicle application form (PDF) [314KB] (opens new window) .
• A valid certificate of motor insurance.
• Proof of road tax.
• The rear plate and front disc that are currently being displayed on your vehicle.

You will also be required to pay the licence fee for the vehicle at this point.

Please note: any vehicles that are not renewed before the expiry of the former licence will be treated as a new application.
