DMT to extend validity period of temporary driving licences

June 20, 2023   03:06 pm

The Department of Motor Traffic (DMT) has decided to extend the validity period of temporary driving licenses issued after next Monday (June 26) to 2 years.

The Gazette Extraordinary to announce the extension of the validity period of temporary licenses is being drafted at the moment, according to a spokesperson of the DMT.

The DMT has taken the decision in a bid to minimize the issues faced by motorists due to the recent shortage of driving license cards when renewing their temporary driving licenses.
