Government launches new driver licensing and registration system

The Government of Yukon is launching a new integrated system that will streamline vehicle and licence-related transactions and better protect Yukoners’ personal information.

YuDriv is a client-centred platform that includes a new driver licensing and registration system. Once fully implemented, this system will improve service delivery and lay the groundwork for additional online services for Yukoners.

The new system also offers enhanced safeguards to ensure Yukoners’ personal information is protected and is not improperly stored, accessed or shared. The system will be implemented in phases, with full implementation anticipated by April 2021.

YuDriv will improve driver licensing and vehicle registration in the Yukon. It is another example of modernization and service improvement by this Yukon Liberal government.
