  • The Federal Government will boost its coffers with the implementation of the annual fee of N1,000 for a Proof of Ownership certificate

The Federal Government’s imposition of a N1,000 annual charge for a Proof of Ownership Certificate on all vehicles in the country will generate about N12 billion in revenue.
