How many plates were surrendered?

The vehicle's plates must be surrendered to a Waka Kotahi plate agent (such as AA, VINZ or VTNZ) for destruction.

Road user charges

Only complete if the vehicle is subject to road user charges.

A vehicle subject to road user charges (RUC) is any vehicle that's diesel powered, has a manufacturer’s gross vehicle mass (GVM) of more than 3.5 tonnes (3500kg) or is powered by a fuel not taxed at source. Where the manufacturer’s GVM is more than 3.5 tonnes (3500kg) an approved hubodometer must be fitted to a non-lifting axle on the left-hand side of the vehicle. If the vehicle is fitted with a hubodometer, state the end reading shown on the hubodometer. If a hubodometer isn't required, state the end reading shown on the vehicle’s odometer.

We may issue a refund equal to the amount of any unused distance recorded against the hubodometer/odometer. For the refund to be paid, the current distance reading of the hubodometer/odometer must be provided. Any refund is liable for audit and is at the discretion of Waka Kotahi. Claims should only be for licences purchased within the last two years.
