‘We know that each year many residents rush to settle accounts and renew their motor vehicle licences in December before they go on holiday, therefore we ask that they please take note of these office closure dates and times to avoid any disappointment, but more importantly to try and beat the rush this week. With that being said, we are very happy to be able to offer extended trading hours at our Liberty Promenade cash office this festive season. In this way, we are offering an alternative to customers if they have an urgent need over these holidays.

‘Once again, I would like to thank all of those customers who are making a positive contribution to our city by continually settling their accounts and to those who have made a great effort to renew their motor vehicle licences ahead of the busy December period that our offices experience each year,’ said the City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Finance, Councillor Johan van der Merwe.

The Liberty Promenade Mall cash office, account enquiries and motor vehicle registration office is situated at Shop 215, Liberty Promenade Mall, corner of AZ Berman Drive and Morgenster Road, Mitchells Plain. The operating hours are as follows:

The City regrets any inconvenience caused by the closure of its offices, but would like to remind the public that their municipal account payments (excluding motor vehicle licences) may be made at any Shoprite/Checkers, Pick n Pay, Pep stores, Woolworths and selected Spar stores, or at any branch of Absa and the post office.

Where possible, the City encourages all vehicle owners to renew their motor vehicle licence online at www.capetown.gov.za/vehiclelicensing.
To pay traffic fines before the due date, residents can visit www.absa.co.za (Absa clients only), www.standardbank.co.za (Standard Bank clients only), www.fnb.co.za (FNB clients only) and www.paycity.co.za or any online branch of Absa, the post office and selected Spar stores.
