Holders and Issues: Final Notice to Outstanding Permit Holders
PHILIPSBURG:--- The Ministry of Tourism, Economic Affairs, Transport and Telecommunication (TEATT), through the Inspectorate of Economic and Transport Affairs (IETA), has published the list of Touring Car (T-Plate) and Unregulated Transport (G-Plate) operators that have successfully completed the 2026 Confirmation Letter Process.
The publication recognizes those operators who have fulfilled the Ministry's administrative requirements and whose records have been verified as part of the ongoing public transportation database clean-up initiative. The initiative aims to establish an accurate and reliable register of active public transportation operators, strengthen regulatory oversight, improve enforcement planning, and support evidence-based policy development.
To date, approximately 47 permits have been verified for Touring Cars, and 15 permits have been verified for Unregulated Transport for the 2026 Confirmation Letter Process, and their 2026 Confirmation Letters have been issued.
The Ministry advises all Touring Car and Unregulated Transport permit holders whose names do not appear on the published list to notify the Inspectorate of Economic and Transport Affairs (IETA) of their operational status and complete the outstanding Confirmation Letter requirements within two (2) weeks of this press release.
Touring Car and Unregulated operators who have not yet completed the process must submit the required documentation no later than September 28, 2026, by emailing the Transport Control Unit at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
The following documents must be submitted:
- Tax Declaration bearing the company's CRIB number;
- Motor Vehicle Inspection Card(s);
- Vehicle Insurance Policy for each vehicle or the entire fleet;
- Touring Car or Unregulated Permit issued by the Ministry of TEATT;
- Chamber of Commerce Registration;
- Proof of payment for the 2025 Business and Director's license (where applicable);
- A Microsoft Excel spreadsheet listing all vehicles within the fleet; and
- Copies of all 2026 Road Tax receipts.
Touring Car and Unregulated Transport permit holders who are not currently operating are requested to submit, before the stated deadline, a signed letter explaining the reason for their inactive status together with a copy of their permit. This information will allow the Ministry to accurately update its records and determine the appropriate administrative status of the permit.
The Ministry reminds permit holders that, pursuant to Article 16(g) of the National Ordinance on Passenger Transport, the Minister may temporarily suspend or permanently revoke a permit where it has not been utilized for a continuous period exceeding six months.
After the two-week notification period expires, the Ministry will proceed with the final review of all outstanding permits. Operators who fail to respond or regularize their status may be referred for administrative action under applicable legislation.
The Ministry thanks all operators who have already completed the Confirmation Letter Process and encourages the remaining permit holders to use this final opportunity to ensure their records are current before the database clean-up initiative concludes.
