I will soon drive to London with my Norwegian Tesla and have tried applying for an Ulez, but got rejected three times.
In the last application I attached a picture of my Tesla, a screendump of the Norwegian page with the registration details, pictures I took of my Norwegian vehicle registration and a letter where I asked them to tell me what documents was missing in case of yet another rejection.
In the reply I got, it says:
"Conformity Certificate" - I am not importing the car, just staying in England for three nights...
"contact the vehicle manufacturer's homologation department" - Come on, does Tesla have a bunch of people writing and signing documents like this?
I have such an urge to give them a really angry response, but I suspect that will not help my case
English is after all not my mother tounge, so maybe I am missing something here?

In the reply I got, it says:
Seriously? Do they want me to document further that Teslas are electric? (It is allready stated in the document I sent them.)We also need a full copy of the vehicle's Conformity Certificate. Alternatively you may wish to contact the vehicle manufacturer's homologation department. They will need to provide you with a letter signed by a named individual from the homologation department which contains the following information
- vehicle registration mark (VRM)
- vehicle identification number (VIN)
- euro standard the vehicle was manufactured to - Fuel Type
- Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) value
and
- Particulate matter (PM) value (if diesel)
If you receive confirmation of compliance from the manufacturer, you can upload your proof through an online enquiry form at tfl.gov.uk/ulez.
