The Bestplate Approved Number Plate programme offers you all the necessary equipment, components and information to operate legally.

The DVLA and the Police are performing more rigorous checks upon dealers to ensure they comply with current number plate legislation.

Checking your DVLA registration details are correct

To ensure you are fully compliant with current legislation, we urge every dealer to ensure that their SID details are up to date.

Checking your registration details with the DVLA is simple. You can check your SID details in seconds via the SID check site: https://www.gov.uk/number-plate-supplier or through a quick call to the DVLA on 0300 123 0797.

If you’re not registered or your details are incorrect you can resolve the situation on the telephone.

In addition, you do need to supply Bestplate with a copy of your Registration Confirmation – V942 Form.
