The Department of Transportation (DOTr) and the Land Transportation Office (LTO) have launched a new digital platform designed to ensure the faster, more convenient release of vehicle license plates for motorists.
The Plate Registration Management Information System (PRMIS) aims to enable motorists to receive their Official Receipt/Certificate of Registration (OR/CR) and license plates within a maximum of three days, according to the agencies.
Transportation Secretary Vince Dizon stated that motorists will no longer have to wait months or even years to obtain these documents and plates for their vehicles.
He explained that the new system is part of the extensive digitalization efforts by the DOTr and its attached agencies to provide faster and more convenient public service.
“To our motorists, you can be confident — now that President Bongbong Marcos has forced us to find a way to expedite the release of license plates. You can get your license plates in a maximum of three days,” Dizon said.
“Before, our countrymen had to wait for their license plates, OR/CR. It would take years. Now, it’s faster.”
Dizon said the DOTr and LTO will continue to work with car dealerships to further expedite the release of license plates for motorists.
“To the car dealerships, help us so that our countrymen can get their license plates at least the same day. We will roll this out nationwide in the coming days,” Dizon said.
Dizon earlier announced that the government has resolved the 11-year backlog of motorcycle plates, with 5.4 million motorcycle plates produced and slated for distribution to LTO district offices across the country.
