License Renewal Chaos: System Overloaded, Fees Loom

The last day of vehicle license renewal was marked by technical issues and a large turnout of citizens, causing the system to crash under the weight of requests. The Department of Road Transport (DRT) acknowledged the delays, which were due to the system's connection with other services (Police, Citizen Service Centers, Customs). Up to the deadline, 772,000 licenses were renewed. Those who did not manage to renew will face a 10% surcharge. The DRT will refund the surcharges to citizens who paid on time, but the system did not register the payment. The final decision on a possible extension of the deadline rests with the Parliament.
