Taxing A Car Without Dvla Form
A friend of mine has come up North for the holiday and has forgotten to bring the form from the DVLA that he needs to tax the car on 31st December.
Can he go to the DVLA office here to tax his car, with proof of identity?
I know he can tax it at the PO, but hasn't got his insurance or MOT documents with him either.

All local DVLA offices have been closed.
To tax a vehicle he can:
(a) go to a Post Office [but that requires the V11 reminder or the V5C registration document, together with the MoT certificate, if relevant. Proof of insurance is no longer needed, as that can be checked electronically] ; or
(b) go online [but that needs either the number from the V5C or the number from the V11 - the rest can be checked electronically] ; or
(c) phone 0300 123 4321. [That also requires the number from the V11 or V5C but it might be worth a call to see if it can be done solely from the registration number - although I tend to doubt it].
Has your friend got a friend or neighbour who has a spare key (or who can be told where one is hidden)? If so, it would be simplest if he could get them to text the V11 number to him.
