Number Plate FAQs

My V5 document says my registration number is non-transferable. Can I transfer a Cherished Number onto my vehicle?

Yes. The vehicle can receive a registration number providing it doesn't currently bear a "Q" mark and providing that it meets the normal requirements of the Sales, Transfer and Retention schemes. You will not be able to transfer or retain the current non-transferable number. If your vehicle bears a "Q" mark you should consult the DVLA to obtain authoritative advice on its eligibility or otherwise to receive a transferred registration.

E&OE.

We will however correct such errors as soon as we become aware of them.
