Same day processing of driver’s licence on hold says TAJ
KINGSTON, Jamaica—Tax Administration Jamaica (TAJ) says it continues to experience technical issues affecting the processing of same-day driver’s licence.
According to the TAJ in a media release, this disruption follows a recent scheduled maintenance activity that has impacted all tax offices, affecting driver’s licences, both new and renewals.
It said all other services, including the payment of taxes and other related motor vehicle transactions, remain available.
“Motorists are advised that they must submit a completed driver’s licence application and an uncertified passport-size photograph, along with their receipt for payment, whether done in one of the tax offices or online, in order to facilitate the processing of the driver’s licence,” TAJ said.
TAJ said during this time, motorists are permitted to operate a motor vehicle, using the receipt and the expired driver’s licence for up to 60 days.
TAJ said it will notify customers when their printed driver’s licence is ready to be collected.
