DVLA - Date of Liability for Cars

[CrazyChemist]

I visited DVLA's website (http://www.vehiclelicence.gov.uk) and clicked on the link to "Vehicle Enquiry".

I typed in my car registration number and it came up with the details from the V5 logbook, but also produced a "Date of Liability" for 1st April 2006.

Does anyone know what this "Date of Liability" is and what implications it has for me/my car/my insurance policy? :confused:

Its the "vehicle tax due date".

Thank you!!

I was worried that it may have been something a little more serious.

I wish they'd put an explanation on their site...

No probs. I thought government sites in particular were supposed to put things in plain English these days but obviously the DVLA have yet to catch up.
