Heyup,

I'm looking at taxing my motorbike next Wednesday but at the moment it is SORN as I expected it to be a bad winter and partly because it ran out end of November.

Does the time period of a 5 days (iirc) still apply for not being able to produce a tax disc? Ideally I want to tax it Wednesday morning and then go to college on it the same day.

Should I be ok or play it safe?

Cheers

Why not just tax it at a Post Office? You'll have the disc immediately then.

Go to college late, post offices normally open at 9am.
Just go in with insurance, MOT and log book, pay the monies, and walk out with a tax disc.

if you tax online you are taxed at the moment the payment goes through..

you still get 5 days to display

Is that still the case even if previously SORN'd?

Might just tax it early Wednesday morning and risk it. The bike is still insured and has a valid MOT
