The Provincial Government wishes to update residents of the province on walk-in services at the Motor Registration Division. Beginning Wednesday, July 28, and every Wednesday thereafter, Motor Registration will provide walk-in counter service to seniors and those who require assistance. The service will be available from 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

Those availing of the walk-in service on Wednesdays are asked to please cancel any existing appointments with Motor Registration via the online appointment calendar. If you have an existing appointment for a Wednesday morning, your appointment will remain unchanged.

For the remainder of the week, services will continue to be available by appointment. Services that require an appointment include licence plate replacements; vision and on-road testing for driver’s licences; photo capture for new licences and ID cards; in-transit permits; purchase/transfer of vehicles and the transfer of driver’s licences and vehicles for those moving to the province.

To help facilitate processing times, the department continues to encourage residents to complete transactions available online such as written drivers’ permit testing, address changes, drivers’ licence renewals, vehicle renewals and notices of sale at MyGovNL.

Drop boxes are also available at government services offices throughout the province. Please ensure that all necessary documentation is included. Clients can indicate a credit card option for payment, with contact information for processing, or include a cheque or money order. Drop box applications that are incomplete will result in additional delays.

The department is listening to the concerns and issues of the public and is working diligently to address them.
