    6. Make your payment. Once your order is received, our dispatch team will work on completing it as quickly as possible!

    If you don’t opt for our Fast Track Transfer Service, then we will post to you the certificate for your registration which you can use to assign the registration to your vehicle.

    Once the legal transfer of the registration to a vehicle has been completed, you can then display your new plates on the vehicle.

  • You certainly can, with one proviso — This registration can only be assigned to a vehicle manufactured on or after August 1997. DVLA specify that you cannot make your vehicle appear newer than it is. For example, you cannot assign a registration issued in 2012 onto a vehicle manufactured in 2005.

    The vehicle must also require tax, be MOT testable (not exempt), and not a ‘Q’ plate.

  • Yes, if you don’t have a car yet, you can still purchase the registration today, and assign it at a later date! The registration R321 MET can be issued on a retention certificate (which is valid for 10 years), until you are ready to assign it to a suitable vehicle.

  • Certainly! If you are purchasing this registration as a present for someone, you can gift the certificate to the recipient for them to assign to their vehicle, either straight away or at a later date. The only information we require is the name of the person that the registration will be assigned to (the ‘Nominee’). You can tell us this during the checkout process.

    If purchasing as an investment, we/you can assign the registration onto a retention certificate (which lasts for 10 years and can be renewed thereafter). Should you decide to later assign the registration to a vehicle, you can do so at any time.

  • No, you can either assign it straight away or keep it on a retention certificate until you are ready to assign it to a vehicle.

    Please note: The DVLA transfer fee (currently £80) is always payable at the point of purchase, but you will not be charged again when you assign your registration mark at a later date.

  • We Certainly can! We offer a Fast Track Transfer Service, our most popular option at checkout which removes any added legal hassle and makes the process of purchasing much smoother.

    • Stress-free — We deal with all the legal paperwork.
    • Transfer completed as quickly as possible or at a date of your choice.
    • TopReg will update your TAX and MOT records.
    • No need to deal with the DVLA — that’s our job.

    You can provide your V5C (logbook) 11 digit document reference number during checkout, or provide it at a later date if you do not have this yet. If you’re not ready for the assignment straight away then you can select a preferred transfer date of your choice.

    This option is available during the checkout process, please be sure to tick the box for our ‘Fast Track Transfer Service’ or ‘Retention Certificate Service’ at checkout.

  • As well as the usual customer name/address details, we only require the keeper’s name of the vehicle you wish to transfer this registration onto. You can enter this during the checkout process, under the ‘Nominee Details’ section.

  • Yes! We Partner with Klarna Finance and you can find details on our Finance Information page.

    Finance is available for the purchase of registrations between £250-£5,000. Simply choose the Klarna Finance payment option at the end of the checkout process.
