DVLA to roll out new number plates next year

The new number plates, currently being piloted in selected areas, are expected to revolutionise vehicle registration and security in the country through enhanced real-time data access, integration with electronic road tolling and improved law enforcement capabilities.

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) has completed the concept and design of new Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)-enabled number plates, with a nationwide rollout scheduled for 2027, the Chief Executive Officer, Julius Neequaye Kotey, has announced.

The onboarding process entails capturing vehicle data onto an electronic database, a prerequisite for acquiring the new RFID-enabled plates, which has many benefits, including real-time verification of ownership, and allowing law enforcement and authorised personnel to verify vehicle details instantly.
