Regional Transport Office in Dadra and Nagar Haveli - Complete DN RTO Guide 2026

Dadra and Nagar Haveli, merged with Daman and Diu to form a unified Union Territory in January 2020, retains its vehicle registration prefix DN for vehicles originally registered there. The DN-01 code covers Silvassa, the administrative headquarters of this landlocked enclave completely surrounded by Gujarat (with one small border touching Maharashtra). Despite its modest area of just 491 square kilometres, Dadra and Nagar Haveli is one of India's most important industrial zones per square kilometre.

Industrial Powerhouse - GIDC Silvassa

The Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation (GIDC) industrial estate in Silvassa and surrounding areas hosts hundreds of manufacturing units producing textiles, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, plastics, and consumer goods. Companies like the Raymond Group, Mafatlal, Bata India, and numerous SME manufacturers operate here, attracted by the UT's historically lower tax rates and proximity to Mumbai and the Gujarat ports. This industrial activity generates an enormous volume of commercial vehicle registrations - trucks, tankers, and goods vehicles serving these factories dominate the DN RTO's commercial registration books.
