Police Clearance and Microdots
Amendments to the National Road Traffic Act: Regulations (2012) have made it compulsory for vehicle owners to get a Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) for their vehicles under certain circumstances. In order for you to obtain a PCC for your car, you’ll need to apply for a Request for Police Clearance (RPC) certificate first. This process also includes the fitment of Microdots to the vehicle.
In addition to all manufactured and imported vehicles being fitted with microdots, legislation has also made it compulsory from September 2012 that vehicles, motorbikes, trailers, quads, tractors, trucks, mining equipment and construction equipment may need a Police Clearance Certificate if one of the following reasons apply :
- Motor vehicle built-up from parts
- Vehicle acquired outside boarders of Republic
- Format of Chassis number/Chassis number is lacking
- Duplicate Chassis number/Engine number
- Chassis/Engine number altered, defaced or obliterated
- Transfer of ownership (Registration certificate lost/owner or title holder not tracable)
- Motor vehicle referred during roadworthiness examination
- Condition of registration of vehicles by MIB/Registration of vehicle of MIB exempted from registration
