Do electric scooters need road tax, registration documents, number plates and an MOT test in the UK?
Electric scooters are exempt from vehicle tax but must still display a tax disc – this is issued free of charge and will need to be renewed each year. Like all road vehicles, electric scooters must be registered with the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) and display number plates. Every vehicle in the UK that is more than three years old needs an MOT test and electric scooters are no exception. This will cover all the standard tests for a motorcycle. The Lexola on-the-road package includes V5c registration Certificate, Tax disk, and Number Plate.
