LTO | Application for Student Permit Requirements and Procedures

CLICK HERE FOR THE UPDATED STUDENT PERMIT QUALIFICATIONS, REQUIREMENTS AND FEES!

Here in the Philippines, applying for an student permit to drive is not that so hard nor complicated. Way back last 2008, I got my first Student Permit from Land Transportation Office (LTO) here in Batangas. Regrettably, that student permit just expired that's why I need to re-apply for a new one last February 2009. Now, I'm currently working for my Non-Professional Driver's License.
