Verification
Get a Verified Dealer badge by confirming your business details. This verifies your business identity — not ownership of every plate.
Verification status: Not submitted
Submit your details and documents — we’ll review within 1–2 days.
A link helps us verify faster (website, Facebook page, Google Business, etc).
Examples we accept:
Companies House confirmation / incorporation document, business bank statement,
utility bill showing business name & address, lease agreement, HMRC letter, insurance certificate.
We only need one document. Don’t upload plate certificates here.
Examples we accept:
UK driving licence (photo card), passport photo page, national ID card.
Name must match the dealer account holder/admin.
This is used only for verification and isn’t shown publicly.
Tip: You may redact document numbers — we mainly need name + photo + validity.
What the badge means
Verified dealers have confirmed business details and documents. It doesn’t guarantee plate ownership or the outcome of private sales.
