The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has given vehicle owners in Nigeria until July 29 to register for the digitalized Central Motor Registry (e-CMR), which costs N5,375 per vehicle.
The NPF in a Press Statement on Saturday said the enforcement of the e-CMR as a mandatory document for vehicle owners would start on the said date while urging motorists to register within the next 14 days.
According to the Police, the e-CMR is an advanced, real-time online repository of motor vehicle data, designed to support police investigations, and operational activities, and combat vehicle-related crimes, including terrorism, banditry, kidnapping, and armed robbery.
It added that the transition to a digitalized system will streamline the documentation and verification processes for vehicle ownership and related transactions.
