FAQs
FAQs
Are your custom number plates road-legal in the UK?
Yes! Our custom number plates are 100% DVLA-compliant and meet UK regulations. All plates follow the legal standards for font, size, and reflectivity.
What is the difference between legal number plates and show plates?
Legal number plates meet DVLA standards and are suitable for road use. Show plates, on the other hand, are for exhibitions, car shows, and private collections and are not road-legal.
Do you offer 3D and 4D number plates?
Yes, we offer high-quality 3D and 4D acrylic number plates that are DVLA-compliant and road-legal. Choose from glossy gel letters or bold 4D laser-cut characters for a unique look.
How long does delivery take for my custom number plates?
Our standard delivery time is 2–4 working days. We also offer express delivery within 24–48 hours for urgent orders. Delivery options are available at checkout.
What documents do I need to buy a legal number plate?
To comply with DVLA regulations, we require:
- Proof of Identity: Driving license, passport, or a utility bill.
- Proof of Vehicle Ownership: V5C logbook, V750 certificate, or lease agreement.
You can easily upload these documents during checkout for fast processing.
Do you accept returns or refunds on custom number plates?
