Taxi & private hire licence fees in Angus

What it costs to licence yourself, your vehicle and an operator with Angus. Every figure is taken from the council's own published schedule, never from trade press or an estimate.

Driver licence

Taxi or PHC driver: new grant £136 (1yr) · renewal £115 (1yr, and for all drivers aged 65+) · renewal £289 (3yr, drivers under 65)

Vehicle licence

Taxi or PHC with meter: new grant £537 (new licences only granted for 1yr) · renewal £457 (1yr) or £1,073 (3yr). Without meter: new grant £477 · renewal £404 (1yr) or £924 (3yr). Plate fee £34

Operator licence

No English-style operator licence in Scotland; the council calls the vehicle licence an 'operator' licence and separately licences booking offices: new £315.35 · renewal £261.30 (1yr)

On top of that

Charges Angus lists separately from the licence fee itself. Budget for these as well.
