Looking for Personnel Checks? You're in the right place! Our taxi division has re-branded and is now called TaxiPlus. New name, new logo, same great service!

TaxiPlus is authorised by Liverpool City Council to apply for an Enhanced DBS Certificate and DVLA Mandate for each new Taxicab or Private Hire Licence applicant. If you have not already done so, please visit www.liverpool.gov.uk/taxilicences for more information about the application process and what you need to do before you apply for these checks.

If you would like to renew an existing licence with Liverpool City Council and you are not applying for a Licence for the first time please click here 

Please be aware that from 6^th January 2020, all new Taxi Drivers who are applying for a Licence with Liverpool City Council for the first time should attend the Street Knowledge Test following payment. At this point, your Right to Work and Immigration status will be checked by a member of the Council. This process is no longer undertaken in the One Stop Shop. If for whatever reason the Right to Work checks cannot be done due to incorrect/insufficient documentation being provided, you will be asked to produce the required document to the Licensing Unit.  Please schedule this once your DBS & DVLA Checks are completed. Further instructions will be emailed to you when your DBS & DVLA Checks are complete.

When your DBS & DVLA Checks have been completed, further instructions will be sent to you by email informing you of all other documents you are required to obtain before proceeding with your Licence application.

Please complete the information below. This information will be shared with the Taxi Licensing Team at Liverpool City Council to support your Taxi/Private Hire Licence application. Please click here to view Liverpool City Council's Privacy Policy. It is important that the information you enter is 100% accurate and you provide honest answers as they may affect your Licence application.
