MCB Toastmasters Club Installs New Board for 2026–2027

More than 102,000 vehicle owners in Curaçao have paid their motor vehicle tax, but nearly 2,714 of them have still not collected their new license plates. Of those who paid, approximately 99,340 owners have successfully retrieved their plates. The outstanding pickups represent a small but notable fraction of the total registered vehicles on the island. Authorities are urging remaining owners to collect their plates, as failing to do so could result in vehicles operating without valid, up-to-date registration. The license plate renewal process is tied to annual motor vehicle tax compliance, making timely collection important for legal road use.

As of July 30, 2026, a total of 102,054 vehicle owners in Curaçao have paid their car tax, according to the island's Tax Receiver (Landsontvanger). Of those who paid, 99,340 have already collected their new license plates. However, 2,714 residents who have paid their car tax have yet to pick up their license plates. The figures highlight strong overall compliance with the car tax obligation, while also pointing to a lingering gap in plate collection. Authorities appear to be tracking both payment and plate pickup as separate steps in the process. The reminder serves as a public notice encouraging the remaining 2,714 vehicle owners to complete the process by collecting their plates.
