What paperwork needed to tax my van?
I am buying a van for the first time and the van has no current tax disc, but does have a valid CVRT. I would like to tax the van privately. Can this all be done online and do I still have to provide proof that I will be using it commercially some of the time?

Hi Deirdre,
No, you should be able to do all that online (although, god knows, a visit to the local motor tax office is still sometimes needed). If you’re taxing it for private use then there’s no need to make any specific declaration that you will be using it for work — that’s taken as read.
