How long do you have to get your car tax when it runs out?

To avoid everybody trying to do the tax on the same day there is a window of + - 14 days. However there is a requirement to display a valid tax disc if on the public road and this does not have a grace period, especially if you are spotted by a jobsworth. After the 14 days DVLA will be thinking about penalties.

you dont have any,your supposed to do it before,thats why you get reminders


mustanger
What type of tax are you talking about? The vehicle registration? If so, you're subject to a ticket the day after it expires, in most places.

In ireland, your car can be taken off you after 3 months if it hasnt been taxed

None

You are supposed to get some BEFORE it runs out.

No time at all.

You must re tax the car before the old disc runs out. Without current road tax you are uninsured.


GIZMO THE CAT
You have to get it immediately, there is no grace period for car tax.

In Ireland I think once you buy it during the month that its due I think its ok I would say about 10 days


oklatom
As long as it takes. If it's within 2 weeks there is no penalty to pay, after that there is, but in the mean time don't drive it or leave it parked on public right of way.

you get 14 days grace but you must not drive it unless it's taxed
