An Application For A Hackney Carriage Licence On Change Of Vehicle

In order to apply for a Hackney Carriage Licence for a Change of Vehicle, the

following procedure must be followed.

An application form must be completed and signed by the proprietor.

A logbook (in the absence of the logbook, please speak to staff for advice)

must be produced for the new vehicle.

A fee of £122.00 must be paid and a receipt is then issued. The vehicle test

appointment will be confirmed at this point.

When the vehicle has been passed, the proprietor must come to the service

point reception, along with the pass sheet, old plate and insurance.

The new plate is then issued along with a licence and the window stickers

with details of the licence and the Licensing Authority.

If your vehicle fails the test, you will be issued with the

relevant documentation at the Test Station which will outline

the reasons why. If the failure is due to MOT standards, you

will be issued with a ‘Refusal MOT test Certificate’ which

again outlines the reason for the refusal (there is important

information on the reverse side of this document which

should be read).

Any enquiries regarding the above can be made at the service point or by

telephone to the Licensing Administration team on 01706 924114.

Please note: Original documents MUST be produced at every

application submitted
