The Land Transportation Office (LTO) will be introducing the Radio Frequency Identification Device (RFID) stickers to replace the old motor vehicle validation stickers and plate number year tags.
The move to change to the new RFID stickers will be carried out immediately as soon as the existing stocks of the year tag stickers are consumed.
The LTO said that this is in preparation for the full implementation of the Private Motor Vehicle Inspection Centers (PMVIC) and Radio Frequency Identification Device (RFID) stickers, which are expected to roll out in the coming weeks.
The PMVIC will be in charge of the motor vehicle inspection system (MVIS) and shall be a requirement prior to a vehicle's registration/renewal. The MVIS will contain the details of the owner and their vehicle, its roadworthiness, its emission test, and its state of maintenance and operability. Results of the MVIS will then be automatically sent to the LTO’s IT system for processing.
In lieu of the discontinuance of the motor vehicle windshield and plate year tags, inspection stickers will be issued at PMVIC during inspection. The existing cost of stickers, however, will still be collected at LTO offices. The agency's partner-supplier, STRADCOM, will be responsible for the upload deactivation of validation of sticker serial numbers to prevent incomplete transactions due to the non-issuance of validation stickers and plate year tags.
