SFC1000 Type Approval number for UK registration

[Adamski54]

I am filling out UK first registration form V55/5. Item 10 asks 'Type Approval Number/Category. Does anyone know what I should put down? When I bought it from Three Cross it did supply a VX303 pink buff UK duty free registration document but no Type Approval Number is stated there.

I didn’t think type approval would have been present back in the day but Clem will know

I think you are using an old version of the form. Check this link -https://assets.publishing.service.g...e-tax-and-registration-used-motor-vehicle.pdf

Also be aware that many questions should be left blank. Item 11 is one such. The ILOC have an old thread showing how to complete the V55/5 on their forum. If you're not a member, Google can help

Yes my form was very old, a carbon copy thing. I have downloaded based on your link.
I will follow the video link.
I was an ILOC member and lapsed but will check.
Thanks for guidance.
I did read on this forum that a number of SFC's were refused entry into US due to no type approval and destroyed.
I'm not panicking because mine was supplied in UK by Three Cross for export, now back.

I found this very helpful when filling out mine, Clem gave me excellent advise as well, Jason

I sent my papers in today. Spoke to DVLA. Only copies of my Birth Certificates and Council Tax (Originals no longer required.)
Needed MOT, Insurance, V55/5 form, payment, Old Log Book & covering letter. Watch this space.
