It states it can take upto 5 days for the records to be updated. At a guess I'd say that is probably longer at the moment due to recent months of coronavirus. You say you taxed it at the weekend, so you're within the 5 days anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I must have missed the 5 days...in fact, I still can't see it! Fair enough though, I'll just keep checking daily for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomsFocus Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Update - My sisters is now also showing as taxed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDHXIII Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 I do know that the Police aren't over fussed by tax that is only just out, but they are interested in tax that is months out. Try and keep proof of postage, and any other evidence of purchase and you should be alright. DVLA systems do have a bit of a habit for not instantly updating.

It's only a £80 fine (reduced to £40 if paid within 28 days) but no Tax almost always invalidates your insurance. So, if you are caught driving the car a nasty police office could also do you for no insurance which is a much bigger fine and 6 points on your licence, which means your insurance costs will go up for years to come. And guess what, we have lots of nasty police officers in London. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
