Check if a vehicle is taxed

You can check online with the DVLA if a vehicle is taxed or SORN'd on the GOV.UK website. You will need the vehicle's make and registration number.

You can also report an untaxed of SORN'd vehicle kept on the highway on the GOV.UK website, but will need to include the registration number, make, model and colour of the vehicle, and the street name, town and postcode where the vehicle is parked (you will not be able to report the vehicle without these details).

You can also use the Rapid Car Check website to find out vehicle details.

This tool includes vital vehicle information such as:

  • MOT status
  • tax status
  • police stolen status
  • vehicle make, model, colour and year
