Andhra Pradesh (RTO code AP, capital Amaravati) applies the central MV Act 2019 penalties. Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada and Guntur are the main enforcement centres, with camera-based challaning expanding across the state's cities and highways.
For most offences the amount matches the national baseline. Use the table below to confirm the exact Andhra Pradesh penalty and MV Act section for each violation.
About these amounts
The figures below are the penalties prescribed by the central Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 as amended in 2019, which apply across India. We do not currently hold a verified compounding-fee notification issued specifically by Andhra Pradesh, so no state-level variation is shown here.
Under Section 200 of the Act, a State Government may notify its own compounding amounts, and several states charge more or less than the central figure for the same offence. Treat this table as the statutory baseline and confirm the amount actually payable with the Andhra Pradesh transport department or on your challan before paying.
