How do I pay for car tax?

Whether you have just bought your first car or are renewing your road tax for the very first time, you will need to understand that your car must be taxed before you can drive it. You can tax your vehicle on the GOV.UK website, providing that you have your V11, V5C (vehicle log book) or green ‘new keeper’ slip from the logbook if you have just bought your vehicle. You will also need a valid debit or credit card to pay for your road tax. You can also tax your vehicle over the phone by calling the DVLA on 0300 123 4321.
