Getting a driver’s license is one of the important highlights for both car enthusiasts and regular people alike. The document not only legally gives him/her the freedom to drive a car, it also proves that they are mature, skilled and responsible enough to operate a vehicle even on the busiest of roads.
In the Philippines, the Land Transportation Office (LTO) grants three types of driver’s license- student’s permits, nonprofessional permits, and professional permits. To help people who want to have their own driving permits, Carmudi have come up with a list of driver’s license requirements when applying for this document:
Student’s Permit Requirements

Almost every person who is 16 years and older and is physically and mentally fit to drive a vehicle can apply for a student permit. The requirements are simple:
- A valid identification card indicating your age and name (eg. Student ID, birth certificate)
- Notarized parental consent for underage or minors
- The accomplished LTO form for the Driver’s License Application (this form can be downloaded through the LTO website)

Important Tips

1. Always check for the directions to get to your nearest LTO branch by researching it on Google maps or asking for directions from friends and relatives. Before leaving your home, check if you have all your student driver’s license requirements with you.
2. Bring your own ballpoint pen, extra money for lunch and water to hydrate yourself. You will never know how long this process will last, especially if more people are also applying for their license.
3. Deal only with LTO officers inside the building. People outside the office offering you help may be fixers who are trying to get money from you in exchange for fast tracking your application. If you have a question simply approach the information desk.
