On the day of your LTO exam, whether it’s for a student permit, Non-Pro, or Professional driver’s license, it’s important to come fully prepared with the correct documents, valid IDs, and mindset. Missing even one requirement can delay or cancel your application.Filled-out Application Form (ADL).Valid ID/s with photo and signature (e.g., PSA birth certificate, school ID, passport, SSS, or PhilHealth).Medical Certificate from an LTO-accredited clinic, stating you're physically and mentally fit to drive.Certificate of Completion from Theoretical Driving Course (TDC) – Required for student permit or Non-Pro.Student Permit (for Non-Pro or Pro application) – You must bring your original and a photocopy.Parental Consent (if under 18 years old) – With parent’s or guardian’s valid ID.Appropriate Attire – No sleeveless shirts, shorts, or slippers.Pen and notebook (optional) – Useful for last-minute reviews while waiting.Cash for payment – Fees vary depending on the license type.Be early! Arrive at the LTO office before your scheduled appointment time. Expect long lines, especially in the morning. Most offices have priority lanes for PWDs, seniors, and pregnant women.Also, make sure you’re mentally prepared. The written exam will test your knowledge on traffic rules, while the practical exam will test your actual driving skills (if applicable).By being prepared, you’ll have better chances of passing and avoid delays. Always double-check your requirements the day before!
