The Greater Accra Regional Manager of the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA), Justice Cudjoe, says more than 2,300 new vehicles have been registered in the region within the first two weeks of January 2026, reflecting a steady rise in vehicle registration activity.

In an interview with Adom News, Mr. Cudjoe disclosed that registrations recorded between January 2 and January 13 show a consistent upward trend, with daily figures increasing significantly over the period.

He noted that on January 2, the DVLA registered 185 vehicles, while by January 13, the number had climbed to 425 in a single day, indicating growing compliance among vehicle owners.

Mr. Cudjoe acknowledged challenges associated with the rollout of the new vehicle number plate system but assured the public that the Authority is actively resolving the issues to ensure a smooth and efficient registration process.

He advised owners of newly imported or newly acquired vehicles to regularise their documentation without delay, warning that failure to do so could result in avoidable encounters with law enforcement agencies.

The DVLA official also clarified that once all outstanding challenges related to the new system are resolved, vehicle owners will still be required to pay the prescribed fees when re-registering their vehicles.

He stressed that strict adherence to vehicle registration requirements is crucial for maintaining order, safety, and efficiency within Ghana’s road transport system.
