Taxi / PHV licensing workflow

Check a taxi or PHV licensing preflight

Choose one supported authority and provide structured applicant facts before a driver or private-hire licensing submission. This is preflight information, not licensing-authority approval or legal advice.

Free readiness vs paid report

Free readiness check: confirms whether the authority and supplied facts are ready for the one-authority preflight and whether blocker/review conditions are already apparent.

Taxi / PHV Licensing Preflight Report — £19.00: returns the complete deterministic evidence-linked result for the supplied case, including authority, licensing path, status, official-source evidence/freshness, blockers, missing information and the evidence-gated next step.

No card details are collected by this Taxi service; payment is handled by the shared Stripe checkout.

What this check does

  1. Checks whether the authority and structured facts are sufficient for the one-authority preflight.
  2. Shows a bounded readiness explanation and preserves UNKNOWN, REVIEW, and evidence-fail-closed behavior.
  3. Lets a qualified case continue to the £19.00 Taxi / PHV Licensing Preflight Report. No payment details are collected by this service.

No names, addresses, contact details, incident narratives, or payment credentials are requested.

Start with structured facts

Only inputs already supported by the canonical Taxi/PHV engine are used. Vehicle/operator comparison and cross-authority comparison remain separate machine workflows.

Structured applicant facts

Leave optional facts blank when unknown. Unknown or conflicting evidence remains review-required.

The existing MCP/x402 machine path and prices remain available; the human Taxi / PHV Licensing Preflight Report is £19.00 via the shared Stripe checkout.
