If I pay the £25 change of nominee fee and send the form off to DVLA for the new owner to be added as nominee, when they come to assign it to a vehicle do they need to return the V750 for me to sign as the purchaser ?

Or do I sign section 4 when I forward the amended V750 to the buyer

Once the retention certificate is returned to you with the new nominees name on it, you simply sign in the grantee space provided for putting it on a vehicle. Send it on to the nominee who then fills out the vehicle details, takes it or sends it to the DVLA and its then returned to his/her address. They then become the grantee, job done.

spoon do you mean the nominee fills in the cars details and gets the plate assigned to his/hers car?

i only ask as i bought a plate 5 months ago and the seller sent it off added me as nominee and posted the new cert to me, and for the last 5 months its been sat in draw lol

Spoon

Yes, once the grantee has been paid for the plate, he/she just signs it then gives the nominee the paperwork and they can assign it to any vehicle they choose. As their name is likely to be on the logbook they then become the grantee.

If your certificate isn't signed by the grantee you need it signing before you can proceed further.

That was the bit which was confusing me, when I read the form it looked like you were only supposed to sign it, once you are ready to assign the plate to the car.

So presumably it would be OK to sign it but not date it ?

yes i think thats what the chap done to mine, dodgy old game tho as the original grantee only has to report the cert lost etc and yours becomes void, i must assign mine
