Personal Access Number (PIN)

For Motor Tax Online / Motor Tax Phone Service

For vehicle motor taxation renewals, your Personal Access Number (PIN) is as printed on your renewal notice.

This PIN number for the vehicle will remain the same unless the vehicle’s ownership is changed or until another VRC is issued for the vehicle. The PIN is the last 6 digits of the VRC number.  The VRC number is located above the harp on the first page of your VRC.

For brand new/imported vehicles the last six digits of the chassis number is the PIN to be used when the vehicle is being taxed online for the first time. Online Motor Tax
