advise: taxing a van commercialy

[djchickcrx]

I have a van and it needs to be taxed. It is currently taxed as private by previous owner. How do i get the lower commercial rate? What forms do i need?
Also can it be taxed without current DOE? It just out.

You'll definately need a DOE dont know how to get commercial really as they are gone really bad on that..

Do you have to prove its a work vehicle or something

[djchickcrx]

thats what im wondering. i could get a vat number but is it just a matter of convincing your local guard that its for work?

Never any bother down this end gettin the guards to stamp them forms, ya could stick a herd number down on it either say its a farm vehicle.

Is it straight forward to use a herd number? one vehicle per number is it?

can you tax a van commercially for 3 months at a time? or do you have to pay the full year?
