Use a sequence the reader can follow on one screen rather than a vague description of the system.
- check the notice stage first
- pay within 32 days if you want to preserve the discount on a live infringement notice
- use the official AARTO online route or RTIA-approved channels
- keep payment proof in case the status needs manual follow-up
