North East · licence fees
What it costs to licence yourself, your vehicle and an operator with Redcar and Cleveland. Every figure is taken from the council's own published schedule, never from trade press or an estimate.
Charges Redcar and Cleveland lists separately from the licence fee itself. Budget for these as well.
Only what this council states. A blank here means they do not publish it, not that it is free, and there may be other charges besides. Check the official schedule before you budget.
Taken from redcar-cleveland.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 Redcar and Cleveland 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 Redcar and Cleveland taxi driver medical page.
325 licensed drivers, 313 licensed vehicles and 28 licensed operators, from the Department for Transport's 2024 figures (taxi and PHV statistics, table TAXI0113).
Every figure here is taken from redcar-cleveland.gov.uk and checked by hand.
