Paying your traffic ticket


Prior to the amendment to the Motor Vehicles and Road Traffic Act, traffic offenders had to pay or contest a ticket at the Magistrate’s Court, in the district where the traffic ticket was issued.

Under the new system, payments will no longer be accepted at the Magistrates’ Courts. Payments can be made at approved TTPOST locations nationwide, by cash, debit card and soon, credit card. Please refer to the table at the end of this booklet for a listing of authorised TTPOST payment locations nationwide.

The new system provides a traffic offender with thirty (30) days in which to pay their fine, unlike the previous system which only allowed fourteen (14). You will need the traffic ticket number, your driving permit number and the vehicle’s registration number to make the payment. The payment must be made in full and in one transaction. No instalments or part-payments will be accepted.

Detailed instructions on how to make a payment are also printed on the reverse side of your traffic ticket.
