Requirements for Renewal
Make sure you have the following documents:
- ID Document
- Proof of Residential Address (e.g., utility bill)
- Motor Vehicle Licence Renewal Notice (MVL2) or Application for Licensing of Motor Vehicle Form (ALV)
Additional Requirement for Public and Heavy Vehicles
Vehicles used for public transport or carrying heavy loads require a valid roadworthiness certificate.
Alternative Online Renewal Options
1. e-Services in the Western Cape
Western Cape residents can use the province’s e-Services platform for renewals. For the best experience, use a desktop as the system may not be mobile-friendly.
2. Post Office Services
Some post offices still process licence renewals. Call 0860 111 502 to check which branches near you are operational.
3. Banking Apps
Banks like FNB and Wesbank offer renewal services through their apps. Note that courier fees may apply.
4. Third-Party Websites
Websites such as PayCity, LicenceRenewal, and EasyRenew handle renewals for an additional fee (R170–R300, plus courier costs).
Pro Tips for a Hassle-Free Renewal
- Renew at least one month before expiry to avoid delays.
- Double-check your documents and ensure they’re up to date.
- Compare fees between NaTIS and third-party platforms to find the most cost-effective option.
