The digitisation of drivers licensing services will be implemented by the end of May this year.
"Transactions covered by the improved services constitute 57 per cent of driver licensing services. The digitised services will be available on RTA’s smart channels, all the nine driving institutes, 19 main branches, and more than 120 service delivery counters," the authority said in a Press statement on Saturday.
This came as Mattar Mohammed Al Tayer, Director-General and Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of the RTA, met the directors of the Licensing Agency. He reviewed the progress in the digitisation of licensing, which covers 140 services (54 for drivers, 53 for vehicles, 32 for commercial transport, and one for licensing activities monitoring).
