Obtain your vehicle revenue licence online

6-Jan-2010

As the festival season ends and you think of business as usual, does your mind harbour any worrying thoughts about certain annual routines? Do you say to yourself, “Oh, the vehicle revenue licence! Should I take another day off to get the revenue licence for my vehicle renewed for 2010 or to get a new vehicle revenue licence? And after going to the relevant departmental office should I have to go through the hazard of waiting in queues etc.?”

You can now say, ‘full stop’ to such worries.

This is because with effect from the launch of eRevenue Licence yesterday (30.12.2009), renewal and / or new issue of vehicle revenue licence in the Western Province could take place online. eRevenue Licence is a facility under the Lanka Gate Project put in place under the Re-engineering Government Programme of the Information and Communication Technology Agency of Sri Lanka (ICTA) which implements the eSri Lanka initiative. The eSri Lanka initiative, on its part, is the national ICT thrust for making the benefits of ICT accrue to all the people of Sri Lanka as envisaged in the Mahinda Chintana Policy Statement of President Mahinda Rajapaksa.

eRevenue Licence was inaugurated by President’s Secretary Lalith Weeratunga at the Western Province Department of Motor Traffic, Maligawatte last afternoon (30).
This eRevenue Licence service could be accessed through the country portal www.srilanka.lk which is the one-stop e-shop for Government service.
