Renewal of Car registration certificate (only for car owners)

2026-03-06 12:09
Itโ€™s that time of year again! If you are a car owner in Cyprus, the deadline to renew your road tax is approaching fast.

To avoid any late fees or penalties, you must renew your registration by Wednesday, March 11, 2026.

๐Ÿš— How to Renew Online

The easiest way to renew is via the Road Transport Department (RTD) portal. Before you start, ensure you have a valid MOT and active Car Insurance, as the system checks these automatically.

๐Ÿ“ What to Fill In

  • Vehicle Registration Number: Your carโ€™s license plate number (e.g., ABC 123).
  • Owner Reference Number: You only need the last three (3) digits of the ID used during registration. It is typically your Cyprus ID, Passport, or ARC number.
  • Renewal Period: Select whether you want to pay for 3, 6, 9, or 12 months.

๐Ÿ’ก Pro-Tips
  • Don't wait until the last minute: The website often slows down or crashes due to high traffic on the final day (March 11).
  • Confirm Completion: The process is only finished when you see the "Print Registration License" screen. You can save a digital copy or print it out for your records.
