DVLA V317 form: retain or transfer a registration number
The V317 is the DVLA form used to apply for the retention or transfer of a vehicle registration number. It is the central document in any cherished plate operation and is used by both private owners and motor traders managing personalised plates.
Our editor lets you complete the V317 online: keeper details, donor and recipient vehicle information, type of operation (retention or transfer), and signature. The PDF is generated instantly so you can print, sign and post it to the DVLA in Swansea.
Make sure both vehicles are registered in the same name, taxed or SORN, and available for inspection before submitting the V317. Always keep a copy of the form and the V5C log books while the application is being processed.
