Changes of taxi drivers’ details and replacement taxi licences, badges and plates


Changes in your circumstances

Tell us about any changes in your circumstances within seven days. Failure to tell us could have an impact on your taxi driver’s licence. Read more about this in our hackney carriage and private hire handbook.

If you move home or change your name, phone us to tell us. We will take payment for your new licence during the call. You must pay a fee for each licence that you are named on.

Contact us by email to tell us about any other changes, including if:

  • you change your phone number or email address
  • your medical condition changes
  • any changes or convictions are added to your DVLA licence
  • you are investigated for any criminal offence, whether you are charged or not
