Well this is not something I expected on my April Bingo card, a beta app has been released by NZTA which will show basic licence and car registration details.

 

Before someone asks though;

 

Note: This is not a valid licence or form of ID and should not be mistaken for one. You must always have your driver licence with you when driving.

 

Status, conditions and demerit point balance only and then the basic expected details about up to 5 cars.

EDIT: Should point out it does require a RealMe Verified login to use it.

I just posted another thread minutes after this thread, now removed. Here's the release:

 

 

The new NZ Transport Agency (NZTA) App is a secure ‘one stop shop’ to provide the services drivers need, Transport Minister Simeon Brown and Digitising Government Minister Judith Collins say. 

 

“The NZTA App will enable an easier way for Kiwis to pay for Vehicle Registration and Road User Charges (RUC). It will also display expiry dates for cars’ Warrants of Fitness, Vehicle Registrations and RUC end distance,” Mr Brown says. 

 

“Future App updates will also allow users to easily pay tolls and view their vehicles’ safety ratings.”

 

The rollout of the App will also pave the way for the Government to deliver a Digital Driver Licence in New Zealand.

 

“Cutting out unnecessary bureaucracy and delivering the services New Zealanders need in a convenient and timely way is a priority for this Government, and the way we can do that is by delivering digital solutions,” Mr Brown says. 

 

“This App will reduce the barriers for Kiwis who want to interact with transport public services, making government more accessible.”

 

“The Digital Drivers Licence is an important step towards digitising Government, which will ultimately lead us to better digital services and better outcomes for the public,” Ms Collins says.  

 

“I want to encourage New Zealand drivers to help us with testing this new App. Your engagement and feedback will help greatly improve functionality of the services and information available before a version is released to app stores in coming months.”

 

From Monday, users can visit nzta.govt.nz/app for details about how to download the Beta NZTA App.
