Permit allows you to
Unregistered vehicles cannot be driven on the road unless an unregistered vehicle permit has been obtained or the vehicle is exempt from registration.
You can get a Unregistered Vehicle Permit (UVP) when your vehicle is unregistered and/or it is impractical or unreasonable to have the vehicle registered during the period of the permit. A UVP must not be used as a replacement for full registration.
UVPs are intended to cover situations such as:
preparing an unregistered vehicle for registration
moving a vehicle from place to place on a one-off basis
using heavy earthmoving equipment which need to cross or operate on public roads in the course of construction work and cannot meet registration requirements
Before you get a UVP, the vehicle must be in a safe condition and you'll need to declare that the vehicle is safe for use on the road or highway when purchasing the UVP.
To get a UVP the vehicle must not be
currently registered
suspended due to an unrepaired safety related issue
recorded as a statutory write-off
recorded as stolen
subject to a Sheriff's Office sanction
Find out how to check the vehicle records by visiting Check vehicle registration.
If the vehicle is not safe or meets any of the above criteria, you cannot get a UVP.
It is the responsibility of the driver to demonstrate that the journey is covered by the permit.
