Hi all,

 

After transferring a private number plate off my old car and buying a new one, I waited till my V5C came for my new car.

 

Goes online to try to transfer the private reg but comes up with error message "cannot transfer this number online". So use the online chat to speak to DVLA giving all the details and they say "vehicle does not meet the criteria for transferring number plate" and that this has been passed to the relevant department to see whether or not its possible....:???:

 

Bizarre, so now having to wait a few weeks to learn the outcome...anybody had this before ?

It was, and maybe still is, the case that DVLA do sometimes reissue an original number to a vehicle with a restriction that the number is non-transferable from that vehicle.

 

This happened where a restored vehicle did not have full 'official' paperwork to claim the original number. In such circumstances DVLA agreed to the reissue of the original number, subject to the non-transfer limitation, based on supporting documentation from recognized Owners Clubs or similar archive sources.

Did you put your number on to retention or are you transferring it directly from the old vehicle onto the new? If transferring directly from one to another, are both V5C's in your name? if not, you will not be able to transfer it. Also do both vehicles meet the criteria for transferring numbers?

 

 

We need more information if we are to be able to offer and assistance.
