Registering bike with USA title document.

(1/6) > >>

AshimotoK0:
Pretty familiar with registering via dating cert. route but anyone know what the procedure is if you have an original USA title document? I have three bikes with USA titles and need to get them registered.

SteveW:
DVLA still want a dating certificate. If you send the original title you won’t get it back.

Bryanj:
When i did it they accepted the title as date proof but does it show the correct year?
Yes you dont get it back, in theory it is sent back to the country of issue telling them its no longer there.
Personaly Ash i would get dating letters and put the titles in the file for the bike

heli_madken:
I got a Title document with my CBX import. The problem was that although the bike was built in 1981 the title showed first registration as 1983 and the VJMC dating service wanted to use this date which would have delayed the historic taxation class for a few years. So I 'misplaced' the Title and sent photos of the VIN Plate to VJMC for the dating certificate. Worked a treat so I agree with Bryanj's comment, dont use it.

Seabeowner:
That's why I ended up with a J plate. Kept the title and sent a dating cert based on manufacture date (7/71). Actually would have preferred a K for my 500K0. But I think you should be OK with the title, keep a copy.
