soi3eddie Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 AFAIK, 3 months advance for licence and 1 month for tax (you said insurance but beleive you meant the tax/registration sticker). Anyone with different experience please advise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Lowf Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 (edited) No idea for licence, but it's three months for tax and compulsory third party for a bike. Â I did mine in March before coming home to the UK for summer - it was due to expire in June. Â Edited June 6 by London Lowf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyExpat57 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I've heard numerous times it's best to wait until a motor vehicle license is expired before renewing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I get a week short of 6 years. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the cautious: go first work day after expiry (sober from your birthday party) and use some transport to get to the office or have someone with a license drive you in your car (best option).
