How to transfer a cherished number plate?

Cherished number plates can exist in two states - on a vehicle, or on a certificate. Most transfers can be completed online, as long as you have the V5C log book for any/all vehicles and/or the certificate (V750/V778) for the registration. We have guides for each type of transfer - if you want to transfer from a certificate to a vehicle (assignment), if you want to transfer from vehicle to certificate (retention) and if you want to transfer from one vehicle to another.
