Any idea how long DVLA takes to register an imported car after IVA test?

[Aniket]

I imported 2013 Toyota ESTIMA ACR50 and it had an IVA inspection done on 17th January.

I have been told, it will take approx 4 weeks for DVLA to register a car, but it's been almost 6 weeks now and I am still waiting for registration.

Has anyone got the fresh import recently and can tell how much time DVLA takes to register? 

The DVLA telephone support and web support is of no use.

The DVLA are very back logged and short-staffed, it's a case of hurry up and wait

according to a few websites, as of the 22 Feb

Register a vehicle for the first time (including previously used and imports) - February 16, 2022

so 6 day backlog for digital application, 3-4 weeks backlog if it's paper (what in your case it will be) so it should be in the next week or 2 as a guesstimate

a week is 5 working days excluding weekends and public hol's
