Cherished Transfers, the transfer of Cherished Registrations and Number Plates

The term "Cherished Transfers" refers to the transfer of a registration number usually between two vehicles, it can also refer to the transfer of a registration from or onto a retention certificate ( V778 ) .
Normally but not exclusively carried out by a cherished number dealer involving the use of form V317 for vehicle to vehicle transfers or numbers going onto retention.
The current fee payable to the DVLA for this service is 80 pounds for a car to car transfer or 105 pounds for a registration going onto retention. Numbers being transferred from retention form V778 will have had the transfer fee pre-paid at the time of retention although there could be a fee of 25 pounds payable if the nominee on the V778 is not the same as that one the V5C registration document.
Cherished Transfer is used to differentiate from the process of transferring a registration number from a certificate of entitlement V750 onto a vehicle, this is normally referred to assignment of the number.
There used to be restrictions governing the transfer of number plates between motorcycles and cars, these have now been relaxed althought the requirement for both vehicles to be taxed and tested remains..
