The Land Transportation Office (LTO) is extending for 60 days validity of driver’s licenses expiring during the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ).
The extension will start upon lifting of the ECQ, according to LTO mother agency, Department of Transportation (DOTr).
No penalties will be collected for late registration of motor vehicles and renewal of driver’s licenses expiring during the ECQ.
Once the ECQ is lifted, LTO will limit its transactions to observe health protocols, such as social distancing, to prevent further spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
The agency will also reduce personnel in counters but is considering operating during Saturdays to accommodate more applicants. Frontliners will be the priority when LTO offices reopens.
DOTr said applicants should process their registration before the end of the grace period to avoid overcrowding at LTO offices on the day of deadline.
