How to cancel DVLA
- Contact the DVLA. You can call the DVLA at 0300 790 6802 from Monday to Friday between 8am and 7pm, and on Saturday from 8am to 2pm. You can email it here, and you can send a letter at Vehicle Customer Services, DVLA, Swansea, SA99 1AR.
- Your car tax will be automatically cancelled. If you have direct debits with the DVLA, these will be automatically stopped and your car tax will no longer be valid.
- Your refund will be processed by the DVLA. You shouldn’t need to do anything, and a refund will come by cheque through the post. If your refund hasn’t come within 6 weeks, there may have been a problem and you should contact the DVLA to let it know you haven’t received your refund.
- If you have received the cheque, but the information on it is wrong, return the cheque with a note about the correct information to: Refund Section, DVLA, Swansea, SA99 1AL.
