Default Car tax

What is the soonest I can tax a car for next month that I have just purchased?

I dont have the usual reminder slip that comes in the post as Im not the registered keeper yet. I know when you have this its about 10 days before.

The car has currently no tax and hasnt for three months.

Cheers

Lloyd
