AMMAN – The Driver and Motor Vehicle Licensing Department has started implementing the recently amended by-law on vehicle licensing and registration fees after it was published in the Official Gazette on Thursday.
Department Director Brig. Gen. Enad Rukeibat told the Jordan News Agency, Petra, on Sunday that cars with an engine capacity over 3,001CC licensed before December 1, 2015 will be excluded from the new charges.
He said owners of vehicles with 3,001CC — 4,000CC engines registered after December 1 have to pay JD450 in licensing fees, while owners of over 4,001CC cars will pay JD600.
The new charges were agreed upon by the government and the Lower House Permanent Bureau last month after the decision to raise licensing fees created outrage among the public and MPs. Motorists who licensed their cars before the amendments and paid higher fees can visit the department to request a refund, Rukeibat said.
