Licence for a stretched limousine

As of 01 April 2008, the Council may also consider issuing private hire licences for some smaller stretched limousine type vehicles (constructed for no more than 8 passengers, used for example for Prom and Race Nights, Stag and Hen parties)). However strict qualifying criteria, test inspection and conditions will apply (please contact the Licensing Team for further information). Licence fees for such vehicle applications will be around £385 per annum. Larger (8 seater plus) stretched limousines are regulated by the Traffic Commissioners of VOSA (Vehicle and Operator Standards Agency) - refer to the Business Link Stretch limousine web page.
