DVLA prepares electronic queue system to reduce congestion

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) is set to put in place an electronic queue management system in its offices to alleviate congestion and enhance the efficiency of customer service delivery, according to the organization's Chief Executive Officer Julius Neequaye Kotey. The announcement came during the Government Accountability Series at the Jubilee House on October 12, 2026.

Kotey stated that the system is nearing completion as part of the DVLA's service delivery reforms. He elaborated that the system would facilitate the regulation of customer flow, alleviate congestion at service centers, and enable the Authority to respond to service requests more swiftly. This electronic queue management system is among several customer-centric initiatives the DVLA is implementing.

The Authority has also introduced an electronic library system, enabling visitors to watch driver-refresher and road safety videos during their visits, aimed at enhancing their knowledge of safe driving practices. Kotey emphasized that these reforms are aimed at making the DVLA more accessible and responsive to public needs. He also mentioned the expansion of the Authority's office network, digital payment receipts, and SMS reminders for license renewals as further steps towards improving convenience, transparency, and the overall customer experience.
