What to bring with you

  • Your South African ID

    Or passport plus permit. Bring a copy too — many branches keep one on file.

  • Proof of residence

    Utility bill, bank statement or lease not older than three months. Not in your name? Bring an affidavit.

  • Renewal notice or current disc

    The notice posted to you, or your current disc plus Form MVL1 if the notice never arrived.

  • Payment method

    Most post offices accept card. Some smaller branches may be cash-only — call ahead.

How the process works at a post office

  1. Take a queue ticket and wait to be called.
  2. Hand over your ID, proof of residence and renewal notice.
  3. The clerk looks up your vehicle on eNaTIS and confirms the fee.
  4. Pay by card or cash. You receive a new licence disc on the spot.
  5. Stick the new disc on the windscreen — keep the old one until then.

No queue, no paperwork — the WhatsApp option

If you'd rather not visit a branch, our partner ChatBack on WhatsApp handles the whole renewal over chat. Send your reg number, tare weight and expiry; pay the quoted fee; then send ID and proof of address. The renewed disc is delivered to you.

Renew in the time it takes to make coffee.
