DMT to extend validity period of temporary driving licences

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.
