Buying number plates online legally requires Registered Number Plate Suppliers to see original documents in person. If you're not local to Bradford West Yorkshire, simply post your documents to us. We'll guide you through the process after your order. We'll produce your number plates and send them back with your documents securely via Royal Mail Tracked delivery.
Acceptable documents:
1. Identification
You can use the following to confirm your name and address:
- Utility bill, Telephone bill, Council Tax bill or rates bill from the last 6 months
- Bank or building society statement from the last 6 months

The ID document you provide does not need to match the entitlement document; this is because the laws permit buying number plates as a gift.
