You know when I did traffic register in 2008, all this was not there, so what happens to domestic workers who qualified under ZEP, because they dont have payslips etc

Traffic Registration Number (TRN)
In order to receive a (TRN), you need to have a valid passport. You can apply for a (TRN) at a driving licence testing centre (DLTC) and complete the form application and notice in respect of traffic register number (ANR).
You will need the following documentation to apply for the (TRN):
• Valid PASSPORT (original + copy)
• Valid VISA (original + copy) must be valid for at least 6 months
• Proof of residence (original + copy)
• 2x ID Photos (black & white)
If you have a WORKING PERMIT / VISA you will also need ONE of the following documentation:
• Original employment letter on letterhead (addressed to the traffic department, originally signed with date in the recent month)
• Recent payslip & bank statement (copy + original, to show that tax is deducted)
• If you are self-employed, SARS & CK papers are required (copy)
If you have a STUDY PERMIT / VISA you will also need ONE of the following:
• Registration paper (with subjects) for the recent year (original + copy)
• Original letter on letterhead from school / university, stating that you are a student there (addressed to the traffic department, originally signed with date in the recent month)
If you use your SPOUSE, PARENT OR COMPANY PERMIT / VISA you will need ALL of the below documentation:
• Spouse ID (original + copy)
• Marriage Certificate (original + copy)
• Your spouse original employment letter on letterhead (addressed to the traffic department, originally signed with date in the recent month)
• Proof of your spouse income (original + copy)
It may take up to 6 weeks to process your application for the TRN certificate. You will also be able to use your TRN to buy a vehicle in South Africa.

Congrats Ebenezer.
@Traffic department, thus a first hey about traffic register, but go to home affairs get them to give you a letter verifying your visa and then take it to the traffic department.

I am surprised traffic register now a big issue.
