Could have been better in disabled section though let's try.
Whilst disabled with m.s. I normally qualify 50% road tax -not due until Feb'
Seems I've misplaced Sept'2019 MOT though does show online.
Gov website only shows the online version.
Is there anyway of Ordering paper MOT to post application for discounted Road Tax.

Thanks mser's

    Thought you don't get a MOT cert anymore. Just a print out of a few details.

    Thanks mser's the mentioned link does show certificate , no send a copy option.
    Iv'e printed it anyway with last drop of Cannon printer ink.
    Hope Dvla accept it.
    And yes I remember collecting receipt etc and though it wasn't an old school certificate the original paper work did mention new MOT details.
    Maybe worth a call to DVLA tomorrow.

    All you get at MOT is a piece of plain paper printed on a laserprinter.


    You could easily make up your own, but it doesn't matter as the MOT details are online, the only people who would ever look at it would be at the Post Office, and I'm surprised that they don't simply enter the details online at the counter- which would check the MOT.

    Can you not go back to the garage that did the MOT and ask them to reprint it for you?

    Yes or any MOT centre. But they will charge for their time and the expensive paper :D (Capped at £10, so I'm guessing it will cost £10)

    All valid suggestions thanks
    Asking dealership for an mot copy is an option
    Though I've gone with 1st suggestion and sent docs and printed copy from Dvla
    Called Dvla before posting and it should be fine.
    Plenty of time.
