Department of Road Transport announces deadline for 2026 vehicle licenses

The Department of Road Transport has announced that the deadline for renewing vehicle registration licenses for 2026 is March 31, 2026. Motorists are encouraged to complete the renewal process promptly to avoid potential issues during the final day of the deadline. Any renewals made after this date will be subject to an additional fee of 10 euros, plus a sum equal to 10 percent of the total license value. The authorities are currently processing refunds for vehicle owners who were erroneously charged this penalty while renewing their licenses on March 12 and 13, 2026. This refund procedure is being handled in accordance with the regulations of the Treasury of the Republic. No further extensions have been confirmed. Owners are advised to verify their status online to ensure compliance before the cutoff date.
