Local Compliance Context

VLTD Compliance for Kochi Operators

Kerala Motor Vehicles Department mandates AIS 140 certified VLTD for all commercial vehicles operating as taxis, cabs, or tourist vehicles across Kochi and Ernakulam district. Vehicles without a valid certificate are subject to challan, permit suspension, and rejection during renewal at Ernakulam RTO (KL 07) and its Sub RTO offices.

Kochi is Kerala's commercial capital and one of India's busiest tourism gateways, home to Cochin International Airport, the Fort Kochi heritage circuit, backwater cruise operators, and the Infopark and SmartCity IT corridor at Kakkanad. Airport pickup cabs, tourist taxi operators running routes to Alleppey, Kumarakom, Munnar, and Thekkady, and IT corridor employee transport fleets are specifically scrutinised for VLTD compliance during peak tourism seasons and Onam festival periods.

Navionyx is AIS 140 certified and our devices are recognised by Kerala Motor Vehicles Department. We manage the full process from installation to certificate issuance, so your vehicle is compliant in a single visit.
