    Question Few Private Plate questions...

    Just got the docs back for vectra i bought, now want to put my plate on it... Do i have to go to the office (have done in the past) or can this be done online or by post - cant find any links on DVLA site...

    Also plates been on retention and up for renewal in end of JAN, but cant seem to find certificate (gonna keep looking) i'm guessing i can get a replacement if needed or that it will be registered on the system somewhere?

    thanks, lee

    Don't know about the certificate, but when I put mine on i went to the DVLA with the certificate, MoT, tax disc and V5 and they sort it all out there and then. Replacement docs come through after a week or so and you can put the plate on as soon as you leave the DVLA...

    Same at that, Did mine yesterday after buying the car on saturday, Had to wait for the insurance doc to arrive, You can do it by post but it takes about 10 days.

    No idea about the lost certificate, best to call the dvla on the 0300 number.

    Pretty sure you can do it all by post. I went to the office, all sorted out there and then, new tax disc, etc just got to wait for the log book, god knows why ?

    If you cant find the certificate its going to cost you £25, and you cant put it on a car untill new certificate arrives, they say around 4 weeks, i only know as ive just done the exact same thing on monday......
