"Covid special" when paying a traffic fine on Curaçao

WILLEMSTAD - The Public Prosecution Service (OM) offers special payment arrangements for people who cannot pay their fines immediately because of Covid. The "Covid Special" is how the OM named the offer.

According to the OM, many people have trouble meeting all their financial obligations because of Covid-19.

To soften the payments somewhat, you can now arrange a "Covid 19 special". Minimum initial payment is 19 guilders and the rest can be paid in 24 installments.

The Public Prosecution Service is urging all persons who have outstanding fines to come and pay them as soon as possible or to make a payment arrangement for this. The special is valid until November 30th.

The Covid Special comes too late for at least one resident of Curaçao, the man turned out to have more than 10,000 guilders in outstanding fines when consulting the registration system. He has been admonished in the past to pay these fines, but has failed to do so, according to the OM. He is now under custody for 155 days.

The Paga bo But ticket office is located on Waaigat, east of Curoil on Abraham Chumaceiro Boulevard. Cash is not accepted.
