We’re seeking evidence to help identify areas of potential change to how historic, classic, rebuilt and electrically converted vehicles are registered with DVLA.

This call for evidence ran from
9 May 2024 to 11:59pm on 4 July 2024

Call for evidence description

This call for evidence explains the current policies used for identifying such vehicles and the registration processes for them, which have been in place for many years.

We’re seeking expert knowledge about whether these policies need updating, in particular to reflect evolving technologies that support the restoration and rebuilding of vehicles, along with vehicles that are being converted to electric. We also want any suggestions based on knowledge and expertise in this area that may assist in improving the registration process for these vehicles.

This call for evidence will apply in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
