People searching for Kuruman traffic department may need one of 2 offices: the Kuruman Driving Licence Testing Centre / Licensing Office (traffic and licensing office); the Kuruman Traffic Department (Northern Cape Dept of Transport, Safety & Liaison) (traffic law enforcement office). They are run by Ga-Segonyana Local Municipality (registering authority, agent of Northern Cape provincial dept), Northern Cape Department of Transport, Safety and Liaison in the Northern Cape, and they do not all offer the same services, so check which one handles your task before you go.
Only details confirmed on an official source are shown. Where the authority does not publish something, or its page could not be checked, this page says so rather than repeating directory listings that are often out of date.
Last checked: 13 September 2026. TrafficDepartment.co.za is an independent guide, not a government website. We do not book appointments, take payments or issue documents. Confirm fees, hours and requirements with the official source before you act: ga-segonyana.gov.za.
