DVLA V55 Vehicle Registration Service
We offer a fully turn-key solution for registering your imported vehicle with the DVLA under the V55 registration process. ShipMyCar are experts in UK testing and registration requirements for all European and non-EU vehicles.
Registering European Vehicles (EU Imports)
For cars imported from European countries, the process typically involves obtaining a Certificate of Conformity (CoC). This document helps us determine the necessary modifications to meet UK road standards. Common modifications include:
- Adjusting headlights for UK beam patterns.
- Converting the speedometer to display MPH.
- Ensuring a correctly positioned rear fog light.
Once modifications are complete, we manage the GB IVA Conversion (formerly Mutual Recognition) certification. We then complete the V55 import application with the DVLA on your behalf, arrange for your new UK registration number plates to be fixed, provide a UK tax disc holder, and can help arrange 12 months road tax.
Registering Non-European Vehicles (Non-EU Imports)
For vehicles imported from outside the EU, the process involves several key steps before DVLA registration. ShipMyCar can manage:
- NOVA (Notification of Vehicle Arrival) entry submission if not already completed.
- All necessary IVA (Individual Vehicle Approval) modifications and testing requirements.
- Full management of the DVLA V55 registration process.
Our team ensures your non-EU vehicle meets all UK compliance standards for a smooth registration experience.
