That was done by the Tory monkeys. Where have you been?, we've all known this for a year at least!
You can renew it online whenever you want.
And to the end of March 2025, it won't cost you a penny to do it.
you will save/make £130 by renewing in March. Current cost (April 25 onwards) is £16.25 pm. You would be taxing 4 months early. Therefore £195/12 × 8 is £130
This is going to break the DVLA site at the end of March LOLNope. My "tax" was due in November '24 but I retaxed for £0 in March '24. That means I'll need to pay £0 in February '25 to cover from 01-Mar-25 to 28-Feb-26, and thereafter I'll pay whatever is the going rate for EVs.
Just do it online, select the option for not having the renewal code, ignore the warning about it costing you (as it costs you £0) and just go ahead.
As long as they do not change the rules before then.You can do it at any time during March - no need to wait until then end.
1st March 2026, which you'll pay in advance in February 2026 (as VED is effectively always paid in advance). Tax it in March 2025 and the tax becomes valid from 1st March 2025. When you do this retax dodge you effectively lose the current month's tax.So let me get this straight, as I'm a bit fik.
I got my X Power this year on 14th Sept, so presume it was taxed from 1st Sept.
So the tax will be due 1st Sept 2025 which I will have to pay for. But if I tax it early in March 2025, I then won't have to pay tax until 1st April 2026.
