Remember to Register Your eScooter by 31 March 2019 for FREE!

By 31 March 2019, all owners need to register their e-scooters and be issued with a unique registration number, and they are required to fabricate an Identification Mark bearing this unique registration number.

LTA will also issue a separate Registration Mark to the registrant. Owners will be given a grace period of 14 calendar days from the date of registration to affix the LTA Registration Mark and an Identification Mark (bearing the unique registration number assigned to the e-scooter) prominently on the e-scooter to help identify it easily.

.

To encourage owners to register their e-scooters early, the registration fee of $20 will be waived for e-scooters registered by 31 March 2019. E-scooter registration is aimed at deterring reckless riding and facilitating enforcement efforts against errant riders to improve public safety for all path users. 

It is an offence to ride a registered e-scooter on public paths without the Identification Mark or LTA Registration Mark beyond the grace period.

First-time offenders can be fined up to $1,000 and/or imprisoned up to 3 months, with heavier penalties for repeat offenders.
