The Land Transportation Office (LTO) has extended the validity of driver’s licenses that expired during the period of the extended enhanced community quarantine (ECQ).
The agency said on Wednesday that the validity of expired driver’s licenses will be extended for 60 days or two months, which will begin after the lockdown is lifted.
Meanwhile, LTO also announced that no penalties will be collected for the late registration of motor vehicles and renewal of driver’s licenses that expired during the ECQ period.
In order to observe proper distancing protocols amid the pandemic, the agency said that it will limit transactions when the ECQ is lifted. In addition, the agency said that it will also reduce personnel in counters but may consider operating during Saturdays to accommodate more applicants.
The LTO also reminded applicants to process their registration before the end of the grace period to avoid overcrowding at their offices on the day of the deadline.
