Taxed my car for the first time online two days ago, everything appeared to go through OK and I received the confirmation email.

However, the DVLA website is showing that my car is not taxed. Is this normal and does it take a few days for the DVLA website to update?

    Give it a 5 - 7 working days. It could be instant but for some reason it is not.

    Same if you SORN it then try to tax it within 5 days it wont let you. You need to phone the DVLA in that situation.
