Summary

The document is an Extraordinary Provincial Gazette published by the Province of the Western Cape, formally announcing the proposed Draft Regulations on Registration and Licence Fees for Motor Vehicles, 2025. Issued by the Western Cape Mobility Department, this Provincial Notice outlines the intention of the Minister to establish a new schedule of charges effective 1 August 2025. The regulations feature a detailed Annexure that dictates the specific fees for various categories, including a comprehensive structure for licence costs primarily scaled according to the vehicle’s unladen weight (tare in kg). Separate charges are also stipulated for specialized services such as caravans, temporary permits, and certification of roadworthiness. Furthermore, the published notice explicitly indicates that these new rules will repeal the regulations previously issued in 2024. Finally, the public is formally invited to lodge any written objections or representations regarding the draft fee schedule by the strict closing date of 17 May 2025.
