| V5C - Log Book |
DVLA has announced a new service update that allows motorists to tax
their vehicle even if they have lost their V5C (log book) and their vehicle tax reminder letter (V11).
Previously,
customers who had lost these documents would have had to wait up to 5 days for
a replacement V5C to arrive, or phone DVLA’s Contact Centre to tax their
vehicle. This latest update will allow customers to apply online for a new V5C
and tax their vehicle at the same time.
This is the first
time that DVLA has linked their online registration service with their online
licensing service, allowing the customer to self-serve through the 2 digital
channels in one seamless customer journey.
Julie Lennard, DVLA
Chief Executive, said:
We are always
looking for ways to improve our digital services to provide more convenience
for motorists. This latest enhancement will enable customers who have misplaced
or lost their V5C to get a replacement and tax their vehicle quickly and
easily.
