How Does the Process Work?
The DVLA will process your application and will assign a new registration number to the vehicle your registration number is being transferred from. This is usually a registration number based on the age of the vehicle.
The existing registration number of the car that you are transferring your registration number to is, in effect, cancelled. The registration number you own now applies to this vehicle. This means you will then receive a V948 authorisation which you can use to get new number plates made. You will also receive a new vehicle registration certificate.
