Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about RVSF licensing in Manipur
Yes, small operators can apply for RVSF license. The infrastructure requirements can be scaled based on your operational capacity. Leegal helps small entrepreneurs meet minimum requirements while keeping investment manageable. Even small-scale facilities can be viable if properly planned.
While commercial vehicles over 15 years and government vehicles require mandatory scrapping at RVSF, private vehicles can also be voluntarily scrapped. The vehicle scrappage policy offers incentives for owners who choose to scrap old private vehicles, making RVSF facilities relevant for all vehicle categories.
RVSF licenses are typically valid for a specified period (usually 5 years) and require periodic renewal. The renewal process involves demonstrating continued compliance with operational standards, environmental norms, and updated regulations. Leegal provides ongoing support to ensure smooth renewals.
RVSF facilities are subject to periodic inspections by Transport Department officials and Pollution Control Board representatives. Inspections typically occur annually or during renewal, though authorities may conduct surprise checks. Maintaining proper records and operational standards ensures smooth inspections.
Operating without RVSF license or violating compliance norms can result in monetary penalties, suspension of operations, closure orders, and legal proceedings. Environmental violations may attract additional penalties under pollution control laws. Getting properly licensed from the start is always the safer and more economical approach.
