LTO Unveils Online Driver’s License Renewal System
MANILA, Philippines — The Land Transportation Office (LTO) has officially launched the online driver’s license renewal system on the eGovPH mobile app. This new platform enables motorists to renew their licenses conveniently from home or work, marking a significant stride in digital service delivery.
LTO Chief Assistant Secretary Atty. Vigor D. Mendoza II emphasized that the online driver’s license renewal system offers a fast and comfortable transaction process. “This is a better alternative for going to LTO offices since you don’t need to shell out money for transportation or wait in line,” Mendoza explained.
How to Use the Online Driver’s License Renewal System
Motorists interested in this service must first download the eGovPH app available on both the App Store and Google Play. After installation, users can follow these steps to renew their driver’s licenses online:
- Open the eGovPH app, tap the ‘NGA’ icon, find ‘LTO,’ and select it.
- Choose ‘Online Driver’s Application.’
- Click on ‘Renew Your Driver’s License.’
- Upload or take photos of the front and back of your physical driver’s license.
- Wait for the system to analyze the uploaded images (this takes about 1 to 3 minutes).
- Review and verify your details, then submit the application.
- Take a photo following the app’s specified format for identity verification.
Requirements for a Smooth Renewal Process
To ensure a hassle-free online transaction, Mendoza advises motorists to complete the following prerequisites beforehand:
Telemedicine Medical Examination
- Access the Telemedicine section within the LTO ODLRS Portal.
- Book and attend the online medical examination.
- Complete the medical assessment successfully.
Online Driver’s Enhancement Program (ODEP)
- Navigate to the ODEP section in the LTO ODLRS Portal.
- Complete the five-hour online education program.
- Pay the required fees through the portal.
Once these steps are completed, motorists can pay the license renewal fee using their preferred payment gateway within the app. Upon successful payment, the license renewal is processed instantly.
Electronic License and Delivery Options
The system automatically generates an electronic driver’s license, which users can view anytime on the eGovPH app. Mendoza assured the public that this e-license holds the same validity as the physical card.
For receiving the renewed license, motorists may choose to have it delivered via courier or pick it up at a nearby district office by selecting their preferred option during the application process.
According to local authorities, the digital driver’s license renewal system reflects the government’s ongoing commitment to modernize public services, making transactions more accessible for Filipinos nationwide and even abroad.
