In the Philippines, driving without driver’s license or suspended or revoked license is a major traffic violations that can set you back as much as Php 1,000.00 to Php 1,500.00.
Simply said, acquiring a driver’s license is extremely important before you drive a motor vehicle. That way, you can avoid paying expensive fees in case you are caught by a traffic enforcer.
If you already own one, you need to make sure that your license is renewed in time before you hit the road.
Before we dive into the details, you have to know that LTO released Department Order No. 2015-014 just this year. The revised guideline for driver license renewal requires holders of Professional Driver’s License (PDL), Non-Professional Driver’s License (NPDL), and Conductor’s License (CL) to apply at least 1 month before expiration.
In case the expiration date is on a holiday, a non-working day, or a weekend, the license can then be renewed a day before the license expiration to avoid paying penalties.

Sir, clarify ko lang, yung exam is applied regardless ilang yrs ng paso ang passport mo as long as more than 3yrs? 10+ yrs na kasing paso sken at me nagsabi sken na back to student daw. Thank you.
Pano kung yung expired license ay yung resibo? (Ito kasi yung time na wala silang ma issue na card. Tapos di ko na nabalikan. Sabi kasi pwede naman gamitin yung resibo.)
Kpag mag apply student permit now ilang month o year bago magexpire puede mahigit 2 year bago e renew ulit kc ofw ako 2year contract sa bang bansa balance ko pag uwi ko e renew salamat sa sagot.
I did not renew my drivers license for the last 5 years and my previous drivers license ID was not anymore to be found, it was list already. Can I still renew my drivers license?
