That's a bit odd.No logos are permitted anywhere else except the rear doors.I've seen a few ambassador cars with multiple Mytaxi logos on different panels.Maybe the NTA are choosing to turn a blind eye?

Could you have "Whites Only" on the bonnet?

If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

That would break the rules.But if it was incorporated into Mytaxi branding the NTA might turn a blind eye.

I've had my app on for 3 hours today and not one job offer.They seem quite sensitive about this branding issue.Not one offer..

Read it again MFH;
"The holder of a small public service vehicle licence shall not display on the exterior of the vehicle signs providing names, details or logos of industry representative groups."

As in only Rep group logos are not permitted for example TTnH, Irish Taxi council, Etc.

Ken the name of the unions or rep group is a separate issue to adverts.Only ads allowed are on the small panels.

I remember some wiggle room for wraps but it's so long ago I can't find the relevant  section.
This is the important part...

'Advertising, except electronic signs, is generally allowed in
or on taxis and wheelchair accessible taxis.
Any advertising must be inoffensive.
The door signage (branding) must be the only feature on
both front doors, i.e. no other logos, branding or
distractions.
Electronic displays (including messaging displays), visible
from the exterior are not permitted unless with prior written
consent.
Only the official card acceptance logo may be displayed, see
Fig 3, Page 56.
Signage/adverts displayed on rear doors cannot exceed
1600 cm2
in area (per door)'

REGULATIONS 2015.

I doubt it MFH, it would seem that they have their homework done and are not breaking any Taxi regulations.
