The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA), has introduced clone detection machines, known as OBDII scanners, to strengthen vehicle verification processes and safeguard the integrity of Ghana’s vehicle registration system.

In a statement, the Authority explained that the scanners will help detect vehicles imported through unapproved channels that illegally clone the Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) of legitimately imported vehicles awaiting registration. T

he practice has, in some cases, resulted in genuine vehicle owners being wrongly flagged as having already registered their vehicles.

According to the DVLA, the deployment of the machines forms part of proactive measures to curb fraudulent vehicle registrations, enhance vehicle security, and improve the accuracy and credibility of the national vehicle register.

The Authority is urging stakeholders and the public to cooperate with its officers as it works to promote transparency, safety, and security within Ghana’s vehicle registration system.
