i bought mine online with 3 days left on my mot although that was about the 14th of the month and my mot ran out on the 17th but i was backdating the tax to the start of that month as it was the first tax since i bought it and had been off road with no tax and no sorn for a couple of months..

M.O.T has to valid on the 1st (not even on the 2nd) of the month to get a full month. It can't be just the last day of the previous month.
Or valid just on the day you apply if during the month.

Then YES.

You will have 9 days MOT from the start of Jan when the tax will be dated from. It only needs MOT dated 1st Jan to tax for January.
