If you've recently purchased a brand-new private number plate, you'll receive a DVLA V750 Certificate of Entitlement. This important document proves your right to assign the private registration number to your vehicle. Here's everything you need to know about the V750.
What is the V750 Certificate of Entitlement?
The V750 is an official DVLA document confirming your entitlement to assign a brand new, unassigned personalised registration number to a vehicle.
How do you get a V750 Certificate?
You receive a V750 automatically when:
- Purchasing a new private registration directly from DVLA online or at auction.
- Buying from an authorised registration dealer or broker.
This document arrives by post shortly after purchase, usually within two weeks. But here at Yellowhite, we have been known to get your V750 to you in 5 days. Great service and speed are our top reg priorities.
How to use your V750 Certificate
We take the hassle out of dealing with the transfer of your registration to your vehicle with our super fast Reg Transfer Service. But if you choose to do-it-yourself, then that's no problem and assigning your private number plate can be straightforward using your V750:
- Contact the DVLA and inform them of your intentions to transfer your new registration to your vehicle.
- Provide necessary details: You'll need the reference number on your V750 certificate, registered address and your vehicle's existing registration number.
- Complete the assignment: If successful, the DVLA will update your vehicle's registration records.
- Attach the plates: Once assignment is confirmed you may replace your current plates with the new personalised ones.
- Inform your insurance provider: Let them know about the registration change to avoid potential coverage issues.
How long is a V750 valid for?
Your V750 certificate is valid for 10 years from the date of issue. It can be renewed indefinitely at no extra cost before expiry. The renewal process is simple and conducted through the DVLA online services.
Can I sell or transfer a V750 Certificate?
Yes. You can sell or transfer your entitlement by updating the nominee details on your V750 certificate:
- Update nominee details with the DVLA services using the details provided on your V750.
- Once updated, the new nominee (buyer) will have entitlement to assign the plate to their vehicle.

If you've lost your V750, don't worry. You can request a duplicate:
- Contact DVLA directly: Use their dedicated replacement service via their helpline.
- Fee: There may be a nominal administrative fee.
