Step By Step Guide for Taxing Online What you need to know to use the online service Insurance, MOT and entitlement to disability exemption are checked electronically during the application. You should receive the new tax disc in the post within five working days. You will need to have valid insurance on the date you want the tax disc to come into force (or the date you apply, if this is later). This is checked on the Motor Insurance Database (MID). If your vehicle tax and insurance are due at the same time or if you’ve recently changed your insurance company, there may be problems checking insurance while waiting for the MID to update. Before you tax, you can make an online check to see if the MID has updated. The result will apply only to the day you make your check. What you'll need when you apply for your tax disc Be sure to have the following: • the 16 digit reference number printed in the green box on the front of your V11 reminder or • the 11 digit reference number shown on the front of your registration certificate and your vehicle registration number • your Certificate of Entitlement to DLA, annual Certificate of Entitlement, DLA404 Certificate, MHS330 Certificate or WPA0442 Certificate if you claim disability exemption • your debit or credit card (a £2.50 service charge applies when using a credit card) Tax Online Here
