Jordan’s Licensing Dept to Ban Plastic Cards, Switch to Digital Documents Starting August 2

Amman, July 22 (Petra) The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Department (DVLD) on Wednesday announced the completion of procedures for its comprehensive digital transformation, finalizing the transition toward electronic services in line with ongoing public sector modernization plans.

The department confirmed that the issuance of physical plastic and paper cards for driving licenses, vehicle registrations, driving permits, and instructor permits will permanently cease starting Sunday, August 2. Moving forward, official digital documents will serve as the legally recognized proof of licensing.

According to the DVLD, citizens and residents can present their electronic documents via approved digital channels whenever required. Individuals who do not hold an active digital license following the August 2 deadline can access their official documentation by activating an account on the national digital platform "Sanad", by visiting the official DVLD portal to receive a text message containing a PDF copy with a secure QR code, or by visiting any DVLD branch to process the request through comprehensive service officers.

The department noted that all physical plastic and paper cards will be fully phased out and rendered obsolete by January 1, 2027. The DVLD urged the public to activate their "Sanad" accounts to ensure uninterrupted access to licensing records, emphasizing that the move aims to streamline administrative processes, eliminate paperwork, and enhance overall service delivery.
