STARTING in October, drivers’ licenses issued by the Land Transportation Office (LTO) will be valid for five years.

LTO chief Edgar Galvante said decision to issue licenses with longer validity is in line with President Rodrigo Duterte’s order to cut red tape and give relief to motorists.
At present, licenses for non-professional and professional drivers are only valid for three years.

Meanwhile, Galvante announced that starting August 8, all impounded vehicles will be transferred to a vacant lot owned by the agency in San Isidro, Tarlac province.
This, he said, will clear the LTO compound in East Avenue, Quezon City.

“As you can see, there are too many impounded vehicles here,” Galvante told reporters.

He added that owners of the impounded vehicles will pay for the transfer and storage of their cars. Those that will not be claimed in six months or more will be auctioned. Jing Villamente

Na advance yung date...

Starting next month, the government will extend the validity of driver’s licenses to five years to lessen queues at the Land Transportation Office (LTO), officials said yesterday.

At present, professional and non-professional driver’s licenses are valid only for three years.

“By Sept. 19, those who will renew their licenses in the National Capital Region will have five-year validity,” Cherie Mercado, spokesperson of the Department of Transportation (DOT) said.

The LTO will initially implement the five-year validity of driver’s licenses in Metro Manila next month.

The rest of the regions will follow in October, Mercado said.

Thanks for this info. Haha di pa din umabot! Sept 15 bday ko. Will just renew late na lang, Sept 19 onwards.

[Roden Villegas]

Yung mga ganitong padale ni Duterte ang napapaisip ko.

Pwede naman pala at kaya naman pala yun. Bakit hindi naisip ng mga dating namumuno ito.

Anyway, may card naman kaya na sila? Baka naman 5 years na pabalik balik sa LTO para sa patatakan yung resibo ng extension mangyari :D

Regarding the shortage of plastic cards, your old plastic will be used in the meantime while waiting for the new one...
