Licensing a vehicle
Before you choose a vehicle or licence it, you’ll need to:
- licence yourself
- make sure it meets certain standards, including safety, emissions and branding
- have the vehicle inspected at an approved garage
To apply for your vehicle licence, you’ll need to complete a form, pay a fee and send us certain evidence.
