That there is NO hackney operators licence requirement in England?



Despite the £65 fee in our HC fee list

The list of fees is ambiguous to say the least

It is hard for you to prove a negative so I suggest you ask them for the Legislation that allows the charge.

There used to be a £35 meter check fee and £15 to plate a car on just the "new owner" portion of a V5

Quote:
Hackney Carriage Application Form - This form is incorrectly priced. The Fees for a Hackney Carriage licence is £205, a Backing Plate is £15 (the backing plate on your current vehicle will work) and an is MOT £3 (if required). You are correct a Hackney Carriage vehicle does not require an Operators licence.


£205 also includes meter check
