You may make a free telephone call to our Enforcement Telephone Hotline on 08000 325 202. Please ensure you have the following details, as you will be asked for this information:-

  • the registration mark;
  • location of the vehicle;
  • the make/model, colour;

3. In writing

You may send the details in writing to your nearest DVLA Local Office.

The details must include:

Wherever possible, please provide:
