If a vehicle is not going to be in use in a public place for a temporary period of time, the owner can make a Declaration of Non-Use of a Motor Vehicle at any time in the last month of an extant motor tax disc or the last month of a previously made Declaration of Non-Use. The vehicle can be declared off the road for a period of between 3 and 12 calendar months, and a further declaration can then be made, if the vehicle is still not in use. The owner is not required to specify the reason that the vehicle is not being used.
