watchoutfarang Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I have just bought a car from a friend and changed the plates for new ones. The car is in my name and I have the blue book. However, the transfer was done on Feb 15th 2009. My road tax, however, has not been renewed for the year and I have to pay it again on June 15th 2009. This is when the tax ran out on the old number plate. Is this standard procedure when a transfer happens or have I been done?? Thanks in advance.

Seems to be the remainder of the road tax is transferred to the new numberplate. Edited March 24, 2009 by hansnl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchoutfarang Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 Bit of scam then really as I will have to pay another whack in June - should have waited until then to transfer, but they would have probably back charged me!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
