Taxi and private hire licences

Vehicle checks

Due to the current changing situation we decided to not carry out vehicle damage or vehicle repair checks until further notice.

Please continue to use the online service for reporting any damage on your licensed vehicle, following the usual procedures and within the conditional timescales on your licence.

It may be required that we contact you for further images / pictures of your vehicle to ensure we can review the full extent of the damage and or repair to your vehicle.

Apologies for the inconvenience at this time.

There are two types of taxi licence: Hackney Carriage and Private Hire. We licence hackney carriage vehicles, private hire vehicles, their drivers and operators. Applications for vehicle and driver licences are now carried out online.
