RTMC produces and delivers 1 million vehicle licences
Today, the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) proudly celebrates the significant milestone of successfully producing and delivering 1 million vehicle driving licensing discs.
To mark the occasion the RTMC CEO Advocate Makhosini Msibi personally delivered the disc to Mr. Lukie Mashishi in Ivory Park, Tembisa.
Adv. Msibi applauded Mashishi for using the natis online system and embracing the fourth industrial revolution in a government online service.
“You have saved yourself time to go to a licensing centre where you would stand in a queue. We deliver the disc to you in the comfort of your home. We are partnering with people like you to improve our services. Everybody has been saying we are bad as government, but this bears testimony that we are improving.”
Mr. Mashishi was excited to receive his vehicle disc. He said it was unbelievable that his disc had been delivered in two days.
“I was initially skeptical to do this transaction online, but I said let me give it a try. It really works and I am glad to be one of the million people who have used the online system. I wish the service can grow and serve more people.”
Mr. Mashishi said his 13-year-old son Junior helped him to do the transaction and he was surprised how easy it was.
By reaching the one million mark the NaTIS online has proven to be the fastest growing, reliable, and cost-effective platform to utilize to renew motor vehicle licenses (discs) throughout the country.
The platform was launched in February 2022 and since then the service has grown in leaps and bounds as it has been able to bring convenience to hundreds of thousands of motorists throughout the country.
To date, about one million and fifty-eight thousand (1 058 000) motor vehicle licenses have been renewed online.
The RTMC platform is the only online motor vehicle license renewal service in the country that does not charge administration or service fees. The cost of the motor vehicle license fees and courier services are the only cost that are levied.
Despite encountering teething problems initially, the platform has since proven to be resilient and a time saving, seamless digital service which delivers on its promises.
The RTMC extends heartfelt appreciation and applaud all South Africans who have embraced and continuously make use of this innovative system.
With great pride, the RTMC acknowledges the substantial progress made in its pursuit of delivering a world-class service to the citizens of South Africa.
Prospective applicants are encouraged to take advantage of the convenient service, enabling them to renew their licenses from anywhere in the country with a simple click of a button. Motor vehicle discs are delivered to all addresses throughout the country.
