What must you have when you're renewing your vehicle tax?
- A Valid vehicle insurance
- B The vehicle's service record
- C The vehicle handbook
- D A valid driving licence
Why this is the answer
When renewing your vehicle tax, you must have valid insurance cover for the vehicle. It's illegal to drive or keep a vehicle on public roads without insurance cover.
Why the other answers don't fit
- B
- The vehicle's service record — A service record is a maintenance history.
- C
- The vehicle handbook — The handbook is reference material.
- D
- A valid driving licence — Tax follows the vehicle; whoever keeps it need not hold a licence.

Where this question comes from
The question, its options and the explanation are reproduced word for word from the DVSA revision question bank under licence. The licence requires them to appear unaltered, so we cannot reword them and neither can anyone else — that is why you will meet the same wording on other sites. Everything else on this page is written by Theory Hub: the explanation of why each wrong answer is wrong, the topic guide and the revision notes.
