Scotland · licence fees
What it costs to licence yourself, your vehicle and an operator with Shetland Islands. Every figure is taken from the council's own published schedule, never from trade press or an estimate.
Taken from coins.shetland.gov.uk. Checked 8 Aug 2026 (2026-27 Schedule of Charges, Environment and Transport Committee 17 Feb 2026, held flat from 2025-26. The £90 and £137 shown on the council's own taxi web page sit under the wrong headings there — £90 is the driver fee, £137 the vehicle renewal). 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 Shetland Islands will accept: The council does not say.
The ages it repeats at, the form they want and the council’s own source are on the Shetland Islands taxi driver medical page.
Every figure here is taken from coins.shetland.gov.uk and checked by hand.
