East of England · licence fees
What it costs to licence yourself, your vehicle and an operator with Watford. Every figure is taken from the council's own published schedule, never from trade press or an estimate.
Taken from watford.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 Watford will accept: Your own GP only.
The ages it repeats at, the form they want and the council’s own source are on the Watford taxi driver medical page.
537 licensed drivers, 389 licensed vehicles and 15 licensed operators, from the Department for Transport's 2024 figures (taxi and PHV statistics, table TAXI0113).
Every figure here is taken from watford.gov.uk and checked by hand.
