Requirements To Renew Istimara in Saudi Arabia

Before you start the online procedure of vehicle registration in Absher , you need to fulfill the following criteria.

Register in Absher KSA.

Registering in Absher is the first requirement to start the renewal process. If you don’t have an account then you can register a moi Absher account easily. You can access the renewal service only if you have an account.

Pay the Renewal Fee For Istimara ( Vehicle Registration).

Absher doesn’t start the service unless you have deposited the renewal fee. The istimara renewal charges are 300 Saudi Riyals for private vehicles in 2022. Before the cost was just 150 riyals. For the Taxi, trucks, and minibusses, the renewal charges are 600 Saudi Riyals.

You can deposit it using your online bank account, ATM, or through Sadad account. The validity of vehicle registration is 3 years.

Pay All Traffic Violations

If you have unpaid traffic violations, then pay them first. You can check all traffic violations in your Absher account. To pay all violations at once, you can use the bank account. You can also pay grama (traffic violations) using Tahweel al Rajhi or Quick Pay account.

Validity of Istimara

Absher will update your istimara only if it is going to expire within 180 days (6 months). The expiry date is available on your istimara card. However, there is the possibility that the expiry date is not available on it. In that case, you can check it in your Absher account.

Perform the MVPI Fahas

Fahas is another requirement to renew istimara. If you don’t have valid fahes, then go to any MVPI center and pass the test. Nowadays, muroor checks it and if you don’t have it, muroor can charge you a fine of 150 riyals. So keep it updated.

Furthermore, you cannot renew vehicle registration without passing the motor vehicle inspection test.

To avoid a fine and a security check at checkpoints ( Nukta Tafsheesh), don’t remove the sticker from your vehicle’s front screen. Traffic police take a picture and send a penalty message on your mobile.

Get The Vehicle Insurance

Your vehicle must have valid insurance at the time of renewal of the istimara. You can buy insurance online. Several insurance companies are offering online vehicle insurance in Saudi Arabia. You may give a try to Walaa insurance as we found it cheaper than other companies for Hyundai and Kia.

Also, Please note that there is no need to fill istimara renewal form because now you can renew it online using Absher services.
