Your insurance must cover the date you want your tax to run from (same with the MOT). If your insurance for example expired on the 30th March then you won't be able to tax it to start on 1st April.

Steve Burns Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Why not use the online service no queuing up no use of you time to get there and back and no getting wound up at the person behind the counter if you do not have the correct documents/details with you as long as your insurance is on the MID data base as it should be there should be no problems If it isn't you need to get on to your company and find out why thet hav'nt done it after all believe that is where the police check to see insurance and various other details on cars that are on the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
