On Friday, January 28, NTSA introduced the new appearance plates at a meeting attended by Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang'i. He was accompanied by CAS Hussein Dado, Interior Principal Secretary, Karanja Kibicho, Inspect General of Police Hilary Mutyambai and the Director-General Financial Reporting Centre (FRC), Saitoti Maika.
The new set of plates are "KC" for container freight stations, "KG" for garages and "KT" for towing companies.
According to the information sourced by Bright Kenya, the new plates are white in colour on a light green background, resembling those initially used by the Municipal Councils.

To apply for the new KG plate license for garage and tow tracks, members of the public will have to pay Ksh18,550. Application of the new plates will be made on the NTSA section on the eCitizen website where the NTSA will direct the applicants on the process of making the application.
The NTSA announced last week that it was developing a new system as part of a crackdown on all Kenyan motorists. The new system, according to the authority, would harmonize and synchronize the digital system under the Transport Integrated Management System (TIMS) so as to offer information on all cars on Kenyan roads.
With the use of this new system, the NTSA will be able to detect some of the unroadworthy vehicles in the country.
