Registration Fee
What goes in box 4
Box 4 of the DVLA V55/5 form is for registration fee.
The DVLA first registration fee is £55 for most vehicles, so we've pre-filled that. Enter £0 only if your vehicle is exempt — for example, it was previously registered in the UK (including Northern Ireland), is a historic vehicle previously registered with the old local authorities, or is first registered in the 'Disabled' exempt tax class. See the official new registrations fee guidance.
