Afternoon all, looking for some help

I bought a car and have been given the V5C/2 (little green slip)

Now I want to put my private plate on the car so do I need to send this slip off, get the V5 document and then apply for the private plate to be put on.... or can I do it in one fell swoop?

Appreciate your advice.

The previous owner or dealer will have sent the main part away, the little green slip is for you to keep. So you will have to wait a week or two for the full V5C to arrive, to then start the transfer.

(I think)

Nope, you can fill out a V62 and do it immediately.

Do this. No need to pay the £25 for V5 either (when you see that bit).

Complete a V62, and submit to your local DVLA office the V5C/2, V62, MOT (if applicable), V750/778.
PM me if you need any help.

can you still do this and send it off to DVLA since you can't do it the offices no more?

Edit: nevermind says what you need on back of V778
