A new, more secure V5C Vehicle Registration Certificate will be introduced from 15th August 2010. The new document is being introduced following the theft of a number of blank certificates in 2006. The aim is to reduce the risks to motorists of buying a stolen or cloned vehicle. The new certificates will be issued from 15th August 2010 for all newly registered vehicles, or when changes are made to an existing registration, such as a change of keeper or address. From the middle of next year, the new certificate will be issued to all remaining vehicles when they are re-licensed, or declared to be off the road. The existing blue V5C will remain valid for vehicles until it is replaced, and the DVLA will not be asking for the old V5C to be returned. |
