From 20 May 2004,
road users can enjoy the convenience of renewing their vehicle road tax at
strategically located post offices throughout Singapore.
|
|
Singapore Post Limited (SingPost)
and the Land Transport Authority (LTA) will introduce the road tax renewal
service at 42 selected post offices (see Annex
1).
|
|
Customers simply need to bring
along their renewal notice, the required payment and relevant documents such
as the Certificate of Insurance and Inspection Certificate. Payment can be
made via cash, cheque (payable to `Singapore Post Limited') or NETS.
|
|
Besides these 42 post offices,
motorists can also renew their road tax through the Internet using the Road
Tax Online (ROTAX) service on the One.Motoring website, by post or GIRO, in
person at the LTA payment counters or at one of the many road tax collection
centres around Singapore.

requested by our customers at the Post Office. We are pleased to be able to
meet our customers' needs to launch the road tax renewal service at our post
offices. We will continually work with more valued partners so that we can
provide the most comprehensive one-stop convenience to the 22 million customer
visits at our extensive network of post offices. Our post office customer
service officers are stable, experienced and well-trained. They are well-liked
by and familiar to our customers. This unparalleled human factor is

Mr Yeo Teck Guan, LTA's Senior
Manager for Vehicle Services, said: "LTA is pleased to work with SingPost
to provide this new service for vehicle owners. This partnership will help us
improve customer service by providing an additional channel to renew road tax,
over and above the counter services and online renewal."
