The National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) has outlined the process motorists can follow to access, download, and verify their electronic logbooks on the revamped portal.

The move is part of NTSA's broader plan to digitise vehicle registration services, eliminate paperwork and enhance the security of vehicle owners' records.

Under the new system, vehicle owners can access their eLogbooks directly through the NTSA portal using their eCitizen credentials without visiting the Authority's offices.

To download an eLogbook, users should log in to their NTSA account through the eCitizen platform and navigate to the homepage, where their registered vehicles are listed.

Under the first option, motorists can scan the QR code embedded on the eLogbook using a smartphone camera or QR code reader.

The scan will generate a unique code or number, which can then be entered in the "Verify Logbook" section on the NTSA service portal to confirm document validity.

The second verification method involves the NTSA mobile application, where users can download the NTSA app from the Google Play Store and log in using their eCitizen credentials.

From the homepage, navigate to the Services section, select document verification, and click on "Verify Registration Certificate" Scan the QR code on the eLogbook to generate the verification number before clicking "Verify" to confirm its authenticity.
