Here at Ballymena Today we still have our Tax Disc upon our windscreen but we have news for you – You no longer have to display the paper tax disc on a vehicle windscreen.

Abolition of the vehicle tax disc – Northern Ireland

NiDirect explain:

You still need to pay vehicle tax and the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) will hold a record on computer.

To drive or keep a vehicle on the road you still need to pay vehicle tax and you will still get a renewal reminder when your vehicle tax is due to expire. This applies to all types of vehicles including those that are exempt from payment of vehicle tax.
