South East · licence fees
What it costs to licence yourself, your vehicle and an operator with Hastings. Every figure is taken from the council's own published schedule, never from trade press or an estimate.
Taken from hastings.gov.uk. Checked 1 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 Hastings 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 Hastings taxi driver medical page.
531 licensed drivers, 426 licensed vehicles and 27 licensed operators, from the Department for Transport's 2024 figures (taxi and PHV statistics, table TAXI0113).
