For student permit applications, including foreigners and those with expired permits who will apply for new ones beginning August 3, a Theoretical Driving Course (TDC) Certificate should be included in the filing.
New driver’s license applications, both professional and non-professional, will need a Practical Driving Course (PDC) Certificate to accompany the existing student permit issued from August 3 onwards.
For additional restriction code applications, an electronically-submitted PDC certificate for the specific restriction code applied for will be required. Applications to convert foreign driver’s licenses to the equivalent local ones will not require TDC or PDC certificates. From July 1 until August 2, the LTO will not be accepting student permit applications in preparation for the new protocol. However, the agency has advised driving schools and driver education centers that they may proceed with conducting the 15-hour seminar for driver applicants, with the corresponding PDC and TDC certificate submissions transmitted to the LTO starting August 3.
