LTO to release 5K driver’s license cards before SONA

July 17, 2023 by Editha Z. Caduaya

DAVAO CITY — In an effort to appease motorist who are up against the use of paper driver’s license, the Land Transportation Office vowed to release at least 5,000 driver’s license cards before President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. delivers his second State of the Nation Address next week.

On Monday, LTO officer-in-charge Assistant Secretary Hector Villacorta said Banner Plasticard Inc., the winning bidder, is expected to produce 15,000 to 30,000 cards daily within 10 days. It committed to deliver 1 million cards in the next two months.

“Just maybe 5,000 copies. The paper will surely be out of date because the production of license cards will start with 15,000 to 30,000 plastic cards a day within 10 days and the promise is within 60 days they can make 1 million plastic cards so the issue of lack of supply for plastic cards will be history,” Villacorta said in a media briefing.

The agency said the first batch of license cards will be distributed to overseas Filipino workers and new driver’s license applicants.

Pending the release of plastic driver’s license, motorist can avail and use the electronic copies of their licenses through the LTMS portal. They have to access through the internet.

Early in June, the LTO reported a backlog of about 690,000 for the issuance of driver’s licenses, with many LTO offices temporarily issuing paper licenses in place of plastic driver’s licenses.
