DVLA V62 Contact Number: How to Get Help

If you need to apply for a vehicle registration certificate (V5C) using form V62, it’s important to understand how to get assistance from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) in Great Britain. The V62 form is used primarily when you want to register as the keeper of a vehicle but do not yet have a V5C, or when you need to make changes that cannot be done online.

What is the V62 form?

The V62 is a paper-only application form for a vehicle registration certificate, often called the log book or V5C. You cannot complete this form digitally; it must be filled in on paper and posted to the DVLA. This form is typically used when you have bought a vehicle and the previous keeper did not provide you with a V5C, or if your V5C has been lost and you need to apply for a replacement with changes to the keeper details.

How to get help with the V62 form

For queries about completing the V62 form, sending it, or the application process, you can contact the DVLA directly. While the official GOV.UK page does not list a specific V62 contact number, the general DVLA customer service number for vehicle enquiries is the appropriate starting point. This number is:

• DVLA Vehicle Enquiries: 0300 790 6802

When you call, be ready to explain your situation clearly—whether you need a replacement V5C, are registering as a new keeper, or have other questions about the V62 process.

Important points about the V62 process

• The completed V62 form must be posted to the DVLA along with any applicable fee. It cannot be emailed or submitted online.
• If you only need a duplicate V5C without any changes to the keeper details, you can apply online instead of using the V62 form.
• You can tax your vehicle at the same time as applying with the V62 if you need to.
• Keep a copy of your completed form and any receipts for your records.

Where to confirm details and avoid confusion

Because the V62 process involves postal applications and potential fees, it’s best to confirm the latest guidance on the official GOV.UK website or by contacting DVLA directly. This ensures you have the most current form version and understand any changes in the process.

Remember, the DVLA operates under Great Britain jurisdiction (England, Scotland, and Wales), so if your vehicle is registered in Northern Ireland, you will need to follow the relevant local procedures.
