The government has extended the deadline for private vehicle owners to obtain fitness certificates until December 31, giving motorists an additional 45 days to complete the required certification process.
Under the revised schedule, vehicle owners now have until December 31 to obtain valid fitness certificates, replacing the previous deadline of November 15.
Officials have warned that vehicles without valid fitness certificates could face legal action once the extended deadline expires. Owners are advised to complete the certification process within the revised timeframe to avoid potential penalties.
The government had initially set October 15 as the deadline before extending it to November 15. The latest extension provides private vehicle owners with additional time to meet the requirement.
The extension is intended to facilitate compliance with vehicle fitness regulations, while authorities have reiterated that legal action may be taken against vehicles that remain uncertified after the final deadline.
