If you are registering a previously used vehicle, including used imports for the first time in the UK you will need to apply for a first vehicle tax and registration of a used motor vehicle (V55/5). You can also do this by post using form V317 to transfer or retain a vehicle registration number. You can apply to transfer or retain a private registration number online or you can keep a registration number or put a registration number on another vehicle online. Alternatively, you can apply by post using an application for a driver digital tachograph smart card (D777B). You can apply online for your first driver digital tachograph card, renew a card (if its expiring within 90 days) or replace a lost or stolen card.
