Car tax and ULEZ for a 2022 car
A car first registered in the UK in 2022 was issued a 71 (January–February), 22 (March–August) or 72 (September–December) plate, unless it was registered in Northern Ireland (no age identifier) or has since moved to a private plate. An imported one is plated when first registered here, so its plate can be newer than its first-use year. 22 plates
A 2022 car pays the standard rate after its first year. If its list price was over £40,000 it pays the expensive car supplement in years 2 to 6 (to 2028). [2] Car tax calculator for a 2022 car
For the London ULEZ, a 2022 petrol usually meets Euro 4, and a 2022 diesel usually meets Euro 6. The Euro standard of the car decides, not the year alone. [3] ULEZ checker
