Private plate transfer to N.I. ?

[fletch8]

Couldnt really find another place to put this thread. but anyway . . . . . . . .

I have just sold my private plate on ebay. My understanding was that I filled out a form and sent that, along with some documents, to the DVLA and then when I get the retention certificate send that to the buyer. How far wrong am I ?

Buyer has messaged me to say he lives in Northern Ireland and it works differently and has to go car to car ?

Can anyone shed any light on this?

cheers guys
