Vehicle tax and MOT dates are easy to confuse, especially when you manage a family car, a van or a motorbike as well. Motorbook keeps the tax due date beside the MOT date and reminds you before it needs attention.
Where the tax date comes from
Motorbook uses the DVLA Vehicle Enquiry Service for tax status and the tax due date. It is a reminder and record-keeping tool, not a replacement for the official GOV.UK tax service.
A reminder before the deadline
Choose a reminder a month ahead, a week ahead and on the day. When the date arrives, the app takes you to the official place to sort your tax rather than asking you to enter payment details into Motorbook.
Useful for more than one vehicle
The free plan covers two vehicles. Premium is designed for households with more cars, a motorbike or a van, with each vehicle keeping its own dates and records.

Common questions
Does Motorbook pay vehicle tax for me?
No. It shows the date and links you to GOV.UK. Payment and official tax changes happen through the government service.
Does an electric car need a tax reminder?
Tax rules can change, so every vehicle should be checked against the current official record.
