Driver’s License
The 10-year license incentive will be granted to responsible drivers with clean records starting
in October 2021. Irresponsible drivers, meanwhile, may face fines, penalties, or more severe
sanctions depending on how many demerit points he/she will earn.
The student permit will give you the chance to learn how to drive for one year before taking
written and practical driving examinations. You can apply for a Student Permit at any LTO
District Office, Licensing Center, and Extension Office that processes Driver’s License
transactions.
Take note that a student permit is NOT an official driver’s license. If you’re caught driving a
vehicle without the presence of a trained licensed driver, you will be fined a penalty fee of Php
3,000 and run the risk of getting your vehicle impounded.
You must be a Filipino or foreign citizen whose age is 16 years old and above. However,
due to the ongoing health crisis, only those who are 21 to 59 years old are allowed to apply
and drive. Once the situation improves, rest assured that the LTO will adhere to its official
age requirement.
If you’re a holder of a driver’s license that has been expired for 10 years or more, you
are no longer allowed to drive and is required by the LTO to apply for a student permit
again.
You must be able to read and write in English, Filipino, or any applicable local dialect.
You must be physically and mentally fit to drive a motor vehicle.
You must have attended at least 15 hours of theoretical driving lessons from any LTO-
accredited driving school. Starting August 3, 20203, applicants who want to acquire a
student permit should have already undergone this 15-hour theoretical driving course. This
new mandatory course, introduced through the Memorandum Circular No. 2019-2176 4, is
part of the LTO’s goal of improving the quality of driver’s education and ensuring that the
licenses are only issued to applicants who have the capability to drive, hence preventing or
possibly eradicating road accidents. For those who won’t be able to afford the ones offered
by driving schools, you can also avail of the same course that will be offered by LTO. The
theoretical driving lessons will be taught through classroom instruction with topics ranging
from the basic organization and functions of the LTO, traffic rules and regulation (including
traffic signs and signals), and road crash risk reduction to other fundamental subjects that
will develop your core competencies as a driver like parking techniques (such as parallel,
reverse, angle parking, and three-point turn), fuel conservation, road courtesy, discipline,
and defensive driving. At the end of this course, applicants will then be required to take and
pass an automated exam before they can apply for a driver’s license. The exam is available in
English, Filipino, or the most common language/dialect in the region 5 so that the examinees
can choose whatever language they’re most comfortable with and they can easily
understand. Interestingly, LTO has recently launched a new online portal where motorists
can apply for or renew their licenses. This portal, known as the Land Transportation
Management System (LTMS), also offers free practice tests with questions that may or may
not appear in the actual theoretical exam. To access this, simply create your own account,
log in, hover your cursor over ‘E-LEARNING’, and click Theoretical Exams.
For foreign applicants: You must be residing in the Philippines for at least one (1) month
and will stay in the country for at least one (1) year from date of application.
2. Requirements.
a. Basic Requirements.
submit their certificates electronically to the LTO-IT system otherwise their applications will
not be processed. Driving schools usually submit the certificates to the LTO on their
applicants’ behalf and just provide the applicants with a personal copy which they’ll need to
present to the LTO for verification purposes.
Applicant’s passport containing the following (original and photocopy): (a) Entry date of
at least one (1) month; and (b) Visa duration of at least one (1) year from the date of
application
If born in the Philippines, submit PSA-authenticated birth certificate (original and
photocopy)
Here’s the breakdown of the fees you’ll need to pay when applying for a student permit:
4. Step-by-step Guide.
Update (July 2020): The LTO has recently launched a new website portal called the Land
Transportation Management System (LTMS) where motorists can easily apply for or renew their
licenses as well as complete other LTO transactions. The portal enables users to secure an
appointment with the LTO as well as pay the required fees, thereby reducing the total waiting
time at the LTO offices.
1. Arrive at the LTO office early. Preferably, choose to transact with an LTO District Office
where most applicants are for renewal. LTO Driver’s License Renewal Office in select malls,
for instance, is usually not crowded and will enable you to finish the application process
within a day. If you’re lucky, you can get your Student Permit in less than 30 minutes.
2. Go to the Customer Service Counter and request an Application for Driver’s License
Form and the Checklist of Requirements. You’ll also be given a queue number.
3. Fill out the application form and prepare the required documents.
4. Submit the filled out application form and other documents with your queue number.
The evaluator will check the completeness and authenticity of your application and
documents.
5. You’ll be asked to recite the Driver’s Road Safety Pledge. The evaluator will encode your
information to the system to create a transaction number.
6. Head to the designated area for the photo/signature taking and wait for your turn.
7. The approving officer will review and approve your application.
8. Head to the cashier and pay the required fees when your number gets called.
9. The releasing clerk will issue your Student Permit and Official Receipt. After receiving
your Student Permit, write your name and affix your signature on the log sheet.
Depending on the driving school where you’ll take the theoretical driving course, the
program may be divided into either three 5-hour sessions or two sessions (8 hours + 7
hours).
Again, the newly released memorandum from the LTO reveals you can no longer be
issued a Student Driver’s Permit unless you have completed the mandatory theoretical
driving course given by LTO or any of its duly accredited driving school. The driving lessons
should be at least 15 hours and must be completed within 2 years from the start of the
course. Aside from classroom instruction, each student will also be given a Filipino Driver’s
Manual to help reinforce the lessons being taught. To ensure that the driving schools are
really conducting the classes and to prevent applicants from circumventing the syste
\m by bribing their instructors, the LTO will give and install automated logbooks and
closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras to all its accredited driving schools. In addition to
these, the LTO will also conduct regular unannounced visits and audits to the said driving
schools.
A student driver’s permit is usually not accepted as a form of identification because
it’s only meant to be a temporary permit. However, in some cases, it can be considered as a
valid ID if it’s in a card format like when applying for a passport. It can also be used, along
with the Official Receipt, for SSS transactions.
30 days after the date of student permit issuance, you can start the application process
for a Professional or Non-Professional Driver’s License.
The Non-Professional Driver’s License is an official license that will only enable you to drive
private vehicles. If you want to earn money driving public vehicles, then apply for a Professional
Driver’s License instead.
Applications for a new Non-Professional Driver’s License can be submitted at any LTO District
Office, Licensing Center, and Extension Office that processes Driver’s License transactions.
1. Qualifi cati ons: Who can apply for a Non-Professional Driver’s License?
As per the latest LTO Citizen’s Charter, you can apply for the Non-Professional Driver’s License if
you meet the following qualifications:
You must be a Filipino or a foreigner who is at least seventeen (17) years old. Due to
the pandemic, however, only those who are 21 to 59 years old are allowed to apply. The LTO
will adhere to their original age requirement as soon as the health crisis is over.
You must be physically and mentally able to drive a motor vehicle. However, just
because you have a medical condition doesn’t mean you’ll be completely barred from
driving a vehicle. Depending on the physician who will assess you during the medical
examination, you may be allowed to drive a vehicle provided that the appropriate condition
code will be added in your driver’s license.
You must be able to read and write English, Filipino, or any applicable local dialect.
You must be a holder of a valid Student Permit issued at least thirty (30) days before
the Non-Professional Driver’s License application.
You must have completed a minimum of 8 hours of practical driving lessons given by
an LTO-accredited and TESDA-certified driving school (LTO will be offering the same
services but at a lower rate for those who cannot afford to enroll in a driving school). This
additional qualification is part of a new LTO policy implemented in early 2020. According to
the Memorandum Circular No. 2019-2176, new driver’s license applicants are now required
to complete a minimum of 8 hours of hands-on driving instruction that will teach student
drivers how to competently operate a motor vehicle through lessons on start and stop;
parking; road crossing and light traffic; backing and turning; maneuvering; highway driving;
garage driving; night driving; and heavy traffic. This new program is part of the LTO’s vision
to prevent, if not eliminate, road accidents by issuing licenses only to those who are capable
of driving.
Must have passed the required written and practical exam after completing the 8-hour
practical driving course.
For foreign applicants: You must be residing in the Philippines for at least one (1) month
and will stay in the country for at least one (1) year from date of application.
2. Requirements.
a. Basic Requirements.
certificate costs Php 450 and is valid for two (2) months. No need to provide urine or stool

the day of their application.
Practical Driving Course (PDC) certificates (electronically transmitted) to prove that you
have completed the required practical instruction given by LTO or any LTO-accredited driving
schools (here’s the complete list of LTO-accredited driving schools in the Philippines as of
July 31, 2020). Starting August 3, 2020, new driver’s license applicants, whether Professional
or Non-Professional and whose student permits were issued from August 3, 2020 onwards,
are now required to submit their certificates electronically to the LTO-IT system or else their
applications will not be processed. The driving school is responsible for sending the
certificate to the LTO on your behalf and provide you with a personal copy which you’ll
present to the LTO for verification purposes.

Official English translation of foreign driver’s license from Embassy of the issuing
country, if not in English. (original and photocopy)
3. Fees: How much will it cost to apply for a Non-Professional Driver’s License?
The total amount of expenses will depend on the type of vehicle you’ll be driving. The Practical
Driving Course takes up the bulk of the expenses with prices ranging from Php 3,500+ (manual,
4 wheels) and Php 5,500+ (automatic, 4 wheels) to up to Php 8,000 or Php 10,000+
(combination AT/MT). PDC for motorcycle, meanwhile, costs Php 3,000+.
Different driving schools offer different prices so make sure to shop around to end up with the
best deal.
If you’re short on cash, LTO has also launched the Driver’s Education Center in some regions
where you can avail of the PDC for free or at an affordable price.
Also part of the expenses is the exam fee of Php 167.63 which you need to pay before taking
the written and practical exams as well as the license fee of Php 652.83 to be paid immediately
before you’re issued the non-professional driver’s license.

Either way, the LTO offers reviewers on its website to help you pass the exam. You’ll be

test.
7. After passing both the written examinations and the practical driving test, the

The prevalent road crashes occurring daily illustrate a worsening traffic situation in the country
today. These greatly post danger to road users and so the state has to maintain safety and
protection of the public. This manual is designed as a tool to provide drivers relevant
information to enhance their driving skills and knowledge. First to remind drivers of the
necessary requirements, fees and charges and timely registration of their motor vehicles.
Second, to update and continuously educate the drivers on the existing Land Transportation
Related Laws. This would increase the driver's awareness on the prevailing traffic rules needed
in putting order on the road. Lastly, to inform the drivers of the fines and penalties for the
violations of Laws and Regulations Governing Land Transportation. The tremendous increase of
fines and penalties to a particular violation serve as warning to drivers from committing such
offense. With this manual, drivers are encouraged to adhere with the mandates of LTO which
would help to resolve the deteriorating traffic situation in the country.

to carry out enforcement functions and duties.
8. How will we know if drivers of private vehicles with heavily-tinted windshields are violating
the law?
Aside from high-definition cameras that can monitor lights from devices inside heavily-tinted
vehicles, the law will also be strictly enforced by enforcers on the ground who
