The stats

An analysis of the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) online platform, online.natis, shows that more than 2.5 million vehicle owners have opted for the convenience of the online platform since its launch in 2022.

The monthly average of online renewals on the natis platform have increased from 44,802 in August 2022 to 222,606 last month with an average daily renewal of 7,181.

“Scores of fleet owners have taken the convenience offered by the bulk renewals service and are reaping the benefits. The RTMC strives to deliver vehicle licences with three to five days and has been able to achieve this target 97% of the time,” RTMC said.

How to renew your vehicle licence online

“To access the service which offers motorists the convenience of renewing the vehicle licence from the comfort of their homes or offices, vehicle owners must register their profile on online.natis.gov.za. This will enable them to update their contact details namely cellphone numbers and email address.

“Registered vehicle owners are entitled to receive renewal notices and can pay AARTO enforcement orders online while renewing their vehicle licences. More than five million vehicle licence renewal notices have been sent out since the beginning of the year,” RTMC said on Monday.

The service is now also available through participating banks such as First National Bank, Capitec and Nedbank.

The RTMC is also able to assist fleet owners who wish to renew vehicle licences in bulk to save time and money.
