• In person with identity document, passport, traffic register (original or copy).
• Proof of address for FICA purposes. A utility bill will be suitable for this purpose, viz. a municipal, telephone or retail store account which is not older than three months.

When somebody else renews on behalf of the vehicle owner:
• Authorisation letter stating the registration number and the authorization of the person doing the transaction (the person's full names). A certified copy of your ID and their own ID; The licence disc or the vehicle's registration papers; The appropriate fees.
