Taxis without YCTA registration, stickers to be banned from purchasing CNG

The Yangon Region Public Transport Committee said taxis running on compressed natural gas (CNG) will have to finish registering in Yangon City Taxi Association (YCTA) and fastening CNG sticker before 31 December 2026.

It has warned all CNG taxis will need to finish the process by the deadline, under the directive of the Ministry of Electricity and Energy and the Yangon Region Government.

All vehicles which failed to do YCTA registering and CNG sticker fastening by the deadline will face a temporary ban from purchasing CNG that takes effect from 1 January 2027. Only after completing the process in compliance with the requirements, the ban will be removed.

Taxi owners are urged to finish the process within the deadline so that they won’t be banned from CNG purchase.
