Brandfort traffic department usually means the Brandfort Testing Station, a traffic and licensing office run by Free State Department of Police, Roads and Transport (provincial testing station within Masilonyana Local Municipality) in the Free State.

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something, or its page could not be checked, this page says so rather than repeating directory listings that are often out of date.
