The Lagos state government announced that it will soon commission its newly introduced vehicle registration portal to allow residents renew their vehicle licences online. The go-live date for this portal is August 1, 2021.
According to Mrs. Lape Kilanko, the General Manager of Motor Vehicle Administration Agency (MVAA) in a recent stakeholders’ meeting, the concept is part of the agency’s efforts at enhancing service delivery in the area of vehicle documentation in Lagos State.
Hitherto, customers have to visit MVAA stations or participating banks to pay for the renewal and collection of their vehicle licences. She added that with this innovation, the vehicle information is secured as only the details supplied by the vehicle owner will be updated on the page.
According to Mrs. Kilanko, “The platform is easy to use for vehicle owners as all they need to do is Sign up, Enter their vehicle licence number, login, Initiate Renewal and Make Payment. They will receive SMS/email notifications while awaiting the delivery of the customised Vehicle Licence via approved logistics/delivery courier. In the alternative, they can approach the nearest MVAA station to print the customised Vehicle Licence by showing their SMS/Email notifications”.
She added that the process is a seamless one that requires little effort and implored Lagosians, especially drivers and vehicle owners, not to wait until they are apprehended by law enforcement agents before renewing their documents.
Established in April 2007, the MVAA is the Lagos State Government’s robust initiative structured to realize the huge potentials of modernized vehicle licensing and registration machinery for the attainment of socio-economic development and the security of life and property.
