AP Resumes Driving Licence & RC Services After 3-Year Halt at Record‑Low Rates

After a three‑year interruption, the Andhra Pradesh government has resumed the issuance of driving licences and registration certificates. The services are now available at rates that are the lowest the state has ever charged. The decision comes as part of an effort to streamline vehicle registration and licensing processes for residents.
The transport department announced that applicants can apply at local offices and online portals, with fees significantly reduced compared to previous years. The move is expected to boost compliance and reduce the backlog of pending applications.
Officials say the new rates will help more citizens obtain licences and certificates promptly, thereby improving road safety and administrative efficiency across the state.
