Ministry of Road Transport & Highways has decided to extend the validity of Fitness, Permits, Licenses, Registration or other documents under Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 & Central Motor Vehicle Rules, 1989 till the 31st of Dec 2020. The Ministry had earlier issued advisories on 30th March & 9th June 2020 regarding extension of validity of the documents related to Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 & Central Motor Vehicle Rules, 1989. It was advised that the validity of Fitness, Permit (all types), License, Registration or any other concerned document(s) may be treated to be valid till 30th of Sept 2020.

Taking into consideration the situation still continuing due to conditions for prevention of the spread of Coronavirus across the country, it has further advised that the validity of all of the above-referred documents whose extension of validity could or not likely be granted due to lock-down & which had expired since 1st of Feb, 2020 or would expire by 31st Dec 2020, the same may be treated to be valid till 31st of Dec 2020. Enforcement authorities have been advised to treat such documents valid till 31st of Dec 2020.

This step of the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways is likely to help out the citizens in availing transport-related services.
