  • In this video we show you can tax your newly purchased car online with the GOV.UK website. When you buy a new car you need to tax it before driving it on the road. You cannot transfer tax from the old owner. You can do this online with the green slip. The car will need to be MOT'd and also have insurance on it for the tax to be accepted on the website.

    Honestly Love this. Didn't know what I was doing as it's my first car and since I got given a whole red booklet with different coloured sections. Mans a legend as it looks like he's saved so many people hassle of not knowing what to do. Also brave showing the details of the car but has shows exactly what people need

    I cannot believe that once more you have come to my rescue - it sounds so simple until you come to do it especially as there are about 400 different codes and the 'helpful' diagram they give online bears zero resemblance to what is in front of you - luckily you were there - UKGOV time to get in on the 21st Century - Rangey L405 is all legal and proper now - thanks guys

    Exactly what I need. Many videos talk about getting a car in UK, but never get into details of exactly how to tax the newly bought. You might consider moving your camera / green slip less for better visualisation.

    Compared to the old system this is a doddle You used to have to get an insurance cover note and take that along with your valid MOT paperwork plus the completed car tax form as it was called then to a post office. You then joined a large queue of people waiting for a cashier to become available. They would then read through all the paperwork you had and then manually write your vehicle details on to the tax disc

    Will make you laugh - found this video because I tried to use my new keeper slip at the start of year 2 of tax (first vehicle and no one told me about logbook stuff, and admittedly didn't ask to many questions.)
    Just had a mini meltdown realising it'd take me 6 weeks to get a V5C - turns out the mother had squirrelled away my logbook that got sent to me 11 months ago without telling me, and forgot to give it to me when I moved out.
    Mothers mate. Squirrels.

      Hi Delton - OK you need to go to somewhere like "gocompare" or another insurance company to get quotes for insurance. You need to arrange your own insurance with a private company. Insurance is needed to drive a car so if you have an accident then the insurance company can pay for any damage.

      Because you've I assume , just acquired the car from previous owner who will send the V5 to dvla saying you are the new owner from let's say the same day you've just taxed it, from the V5C/2 online, so their tax if any remain will get refunded to them and when DVLA get the old V5 it will have you as new owner on it.. Which you have just paid tax on. DVLA will then send you new V5 and a reminder every time it needs to be taxed.
