Tax Exempt

(1/5) > >>

keithdixon:
Silly question but when does a vehicle become tax exempt? is it 25 yrs?

ian_s:
nope
anything registered before 1st Jan 1973 is tax exempt.
it was 25 years when it was first introduced, but when Labour came to power they changed it to a set cutoff date.

keithdixon:
Thanks for that, so until they change the rules, nothing after that cut off date will be tax exempt?

Sorry to correct you, but it isn't when the vehicle was registered, but when the vehicle was first used which counts.

Actually, it's done on the date that the vehicle was built. See http://www.dvla.gov.uk/vehicles/exemptions.htm
