The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has given vehicle owners in Nigeria until July 29 to register for the digitalized Central Motor Registry (e-CMR), which costs N5,375 per vehicle.
Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, disclosed this in a statement on Saturday, July 13. According to him, “The e-CMR is an advanced, real-time online repository of motor vehicle data, designed to support police investigations, operational activities, and combat vehicle-related crimes, including terr%rism, banditry, kidn@pping, and armed r%bbery.
The transition to a digitalized system will streamline the documentation and verification processes for vehicle ownership & related transactions.
Following the directives of the IGP, services such as change of ownership, change of license number, change of engine, and change of chassis/body would become seamless as the e-CMR system would ensure the validation of vehicle genuineness & ownership.
