My vehicle has no MOT and/or is not currently taxed. Can I sell its registration?

If the donor vehicle’s tax and / or MOT has expired you can still sell your registration number provided all the following conditions apply at the time of the transfer application:- 

  • The tax expired within six months of the transfer application
  • The MOT was valid at the time the tax expired
  • You were the registered keeper of the vehicle at the time the tax expired
  • The tax expired naturally, i.e., you didn’t apply for a refund

Note: If the MOT has expired, you can still sell your registration mark provided the road tax is valid at the time of the transfer application and that you were the registered keeper of the vehicle at the time the MOT expired. 

Note: In all cases you will need to provide us with the MOT certificate, valid or expired.
