How to set up a Direct Debit
Paying vehicle tax by Direct Debit
After you’ve set up your Direct Debit
You’ll need to make sure there’s enough money in your account on the payment date. Payments are taken on the first working day of every month – except for the first payment, which can vary.
If you miss a payment, we’ll try again in 4 working days. The Direct Debit will be cancelled if there still isn’t enough money.
Cancelling
We’ll cancel your Direct Debit when you make a SORN, sell, scrap or export your vehicle.
