my tax expired 10 days ago and has been kept on a public road though hasn't been driven during this time.

I dont beleive online tax renewal gives me the option to backdate the tax. If I tax from now, will I get accounted for the past 10 days, what will happen and how can I resolve it?

thanks

It will just show as taxed from the day you do it. Renewal will be 1st Jan 2020 assuming you put 12 months on. Nothing else will happen. I drove around for two or three weeks without tax and nothing happened. Thankfully!

Tax is complete months only, tax it this month and you'll be fine.
