Island Receiver Sherry Hazel said, recently, that once the plates are here and have been checked by the department, the public will be informed when they could collect their number plates.
She said the plates have to be checked to ensure that the entire order has arrived.
Although the public could start paying their 2010 motor vehicle tax, Hazel said motorists are still trickling in to pay. There is usually a rush to pay when the plates arrive.
By law, the deadline to pay for motor vehicle tax is February 28. However, the Island Receiver can set the date for motorists to be controlled at a later date.
Office ware supplier Firgos Paper has been awarded the bid to produce the 2010 number plates. Firgos, which had also produced the 2008 plates, submitted the second lowest bid.
Motor Vehicle Tax is NAf. 275 per annum for regular cars. The prices of the plates remain unchanged: NAf. 12.50 for vehicles, and from NAf. 10 to NAf. 7.50 for motorbikes.
