Tax Administration Jamaica (TAJ) has increased the number of tax offices that offer same day processing of driver’s licence.

The Annotto Bay Tax Office in St Mary now offers complete driver’s licence service, while the Portmore Tax Office in St Catherine will offer renewal services only at this time.

The other offices where full driver’s licence services are offered are the Kingston Revenue Service Centre, the St Andrew Revenue Service Centre, the Montego Bay Revenue Service Centre, the Mandeville Revenue Service Centre, the Spanish Town Tax Office, the May Pen Tax Office, the St Ann’s Bay Tax Office, the Savanna-la-Mar Tax Office, and the Port Antonio Tax Office.

Motorists are reminded that they may renew their driver’s licence up to 60 days before expiration.

Additionally, the driver’s licence renewal process can be started online by logging on to TAJ’s website at www.jamacatax.gov.jm, and making the payment electronically, then completing the F7 Application Form (this can be downloaded from the website), and submitting at the TAJ office along with the receipt, one passport size photograph and the expired licence.

This will minimise the time spent in-branch, as the customer will not need to go to a cashier.

It should be noted that all other locations can accept driver’s licence applications, which are then sent to one of the printing locations for processing.

These will be processed within 20 working days for pick at the location it was dropped off.

Motorists are reminded that they are permitted to operate a vehicle, using the receipt and the expired driver’s licence for up to 60 days.

For further information, persons may contact the TAJ Customer Care Centre at 888-Tax-Help (888-829-4357) or visit the authority’s website at www.jamaicatax.gov.jm.
