Cevap

It remains valid indefinitely until the vehicle is taxed, sold, exported, or scrapped.
Under UK law, once a Statutory Off-Road Notification (SORN) is declared to the DVLA, it remains in force indefinitely. It does not expire annually and only ends when the vehicle is taxed, sold or transferred to a new registered keeper, permanently exported, or scrapped.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the purpose and regulatory definition of a Statutory Off-Road Notification (SORN).
A SORN informs the DVLA that a vehicle is being kept off the public highway and will not be driven or parked on public roads.
This establishes legal exemption from standard road tax and continuous insurance requirements while stored off-road.
2
Apply current statutory rules regarding the duration and expiry of a SORN declaration.
Under current UK regulations, a SORN has no fixed expiry date and does not require annual re-declaration.
A SORN continues indefinitely without the need for periodic renewal.
3
Determine the legal events that terminate an active SORN.
The SORN automatically ends when the vehicle is taxed, sold or transferred to a new owner, permanently exported, or scrapped.
A change in vehicle ownership, road-use status, or registration terminates the previous keeper's off-road notification.
