South East · licence fees
What it costs to licence yourself, your vehicle and an operator with Dartford. Every figure is taken from the council's own published schedule, never from trade press or an estimate.
Taken from dartford.gov.uk. Checked 2 Aug 2026. Fees change, so confirm with the council before you budget around them. Drivers spot changes before I do, so if something here is wrong please say and I'll check it against the council and fix it.
Who Dartford will accept: Any registered doctor with your records.
The ages it repeats at, the form they want and the council’s own source are on the Dartford taxi driver medical page.
146 licensed drivers, 120 licensed vehicles and 25 licensed operators, from the Department for Transport's 2024 figures (taxi and PHV statistics, table TAXI0113).
Every figure here is taken from dartford.gov.uk and checked by hand.
