Quick DVLA question..

Options

If I permanently export my vehicle, Section 11 of the V5C says to post it to SA99 1BD.

If I want to have the tax refunded, the V14 form says to post it to SA99 1AL.

Question is, what if I want to export the vehicle and have the tax refunded? Two separate envelopes? Or if send together, to which post code?

Many thanks in advance.

    For the price of one extra second class stamp send each to the correct postcode.

    The DVLA is a large organisation with a reputation, at least on here, for losing paperwork. It is split into departments with different postcodes to try and get paperwork to the right department. Why would you try to undermine their systems? We are talking a few pence here.

    Did I come across as though I was trying to undermine their systems? I really didn't mean to. I thought that when sending something to the DVLA it's best to send it all in
    together. But if not, then I thought wrong. What, did you think I was trying to save the cost of a stamp? lol - times may be hard, but they're not that hard! :rotfl:

    You can send them in same envelope, send to postcode on Section 11 export bit (SA99 1BD).

    If you want piece of mind send recorded delivery or hand into Local DVLA office if you have one nearby
