NPTR ready

Awareness: not live yet

Driver compliance checklist

The National Land Transport Amendment Act, in force from 11 March 2026, sets new rules for e-hailing. MobiYethu is not live yet. Start getting these in order now so you are ready to drive when we launch.

Professional Driving Permit (PrDP), category P or G&P, valid for 2 years

Eye test for your PrDP
SAPS criminal record check (police clearance)

Proof of address
2 ID photos

Your operating licence

An e-hailing operating licence from your Provincial Regulatory Entity (PRE), applied for on Form 9A. It costs about R600, is valid for 5 years and names the area you may operate in.
A charter permit or meter taxi licence does not count. It must be an e-hailing operating licence.
In Gauteng you also register with GIPTAS (PrDP, vehicle registration, ID and operating licence).
The Department of Transport set a 180-day compliance window from 11 March 2026.
The platform you drive for must be registered with the NPTR too. MobiYethu will register before it launches.
