The National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) has issued a fresh notice to motorists with uncollected physical logbooks, giving them four months to collect the documents before the authority begins disposing of them.
🇰🇪 Breaking It Down
In a notice issued on Monday, August 10, NTSA reminded vehicle owners that physical logbooks currently held at its offices will not be stored for more than six months, as earlier communicated in June.
The authority urged motorists who still have their logbooks at NTSA offices to collect them as soon as possible to avoid inconveniences once the deadline expires.
“ It is four months to the deadline, and we urge all motor vehicle owners who still have their logbooks at NTSA offices to collect them as soon as possible to avoid any inconveniences,” NTSA said.
📌 What You Need to Know
NTSA had earlier announced that all currently printed but uncollected physical logbooks would only be held for six months, after which they would be disposed of in accordance with its policies.
The latest notice means motorists with documents that have already been printed have a limited window to collect them before the authority takes action on the unclaimed documents.
Collection of the physical logbooks remains free, with motorists required to carry their previous logbook and present an identification document at the collection centre or NTSA office for verification.
NTSA also warned that motorists may face difficulties accessing services that require a copy of a logbook if they do not have the current or original document attached to their applications.
The notice follows NTSA’s transition to electronic logbooks, which officially took effect on June 10, 2026, as part of the regulator’s efforts to digitise vehicle ownership records and reduce reliance on physical documents.
NTSA clarified that motorists who submitted their applications before June 10 would still be issued physical logbooks and would not automatically be migrated to the eLogbook system for those transactions.
