DVSA PUBLISHES NEW FORMS TO RECORD DETAILS OF A PUBLIC SERVICE VEHICLE (PSV)

13 Jan 2020

DVSA publishes 3 new forms to record PSVs with.

You will need to use the correct form depending on how you registered the vehicle with DVLA. It only needs to be done once for each relevant vehicle to allow you to book an annual test for it.

  • VTP 788 for vehicles approved under European Community Whole Vehicle Type Approval or National Small Series Type Approval
  • VTP 789 for a vehicle that has an Individual Vehicle Approval (IVA) or a Certificate of Initial Fitness (COIF)
  • VTP 790 if you need to notify DVSA of a change of registration mark for a public service vehicle

These forms should be completed after you or the dealer registers your PSV with DVLA.

There’s no fee to record or change the vehicle details with DVSA.

These forms will replace the 'PSV Allocation of Registration Mark' (RM1 & RM2) forms.

From 1 March 2020 DVSA will no longer accept the RM1 or RM2 form.
