Student’s Permit: License Requirements, Fees, Step by Step Application Procedure and Form Download

First step is to get a copy of the LTO Driver’s License and Conductor Student Permit Application Form (full pdf file credits to lto.gov.ph website)

You may also opt in to download the official LTO Application Form for Driver’s License (full pdf file credits to lto.gov.ph website)

Sample LTO Student Permit

I’ve been to this before. Downloaded the ADL form listed above using online registration to avoid the long line just to go get a form to fill up before application. I have also applied in person for my own student permit in the Land Transportation Office before I was issued my very own professional driver’s license. I had it later on converted and downgraded from level 1,2,3 to a non pro 1 and 2 only. My reason? I don’t ever want to drive trucks which is for the level 3 qualification.

So here goes. First off, I would like to let you know that there is also an available conductor’s permit in the LTO in case you are after this one. For those of you who would like to apply for a student permit, you have to realize a few important facts prior to your application and also before you fill up the official form (which I have provided a downloadable pdf version above). Student permits are workable or valid for only 1 week (back in 2008 but not sure today because LTO website is still down and useless) which means that you have to consume its validity for the purpose actual driving lessons with a professional license holder and qualified driving instructor.

Remember that after which process of your driving lessons, you will be tested in the branch where you will obtain or apply for your own pro or non pro driver’s license. Also take note that you will have to go get your NSO birth certificate first before applying for a student permit. This is for the purpose of letting the authorities know that you are qualified to apply based from the listed age requirement below.

Step by Step Procedure in Application of Student Permit (license): (source: http://www.internetphilippines.com/lto-philippines/lto-student-license-permit-application-procedures/)

1. Proceed to the Customer Service Counter to have your documents checked for completeness, and secure a Driver’s License Application Form. (This form is available for download at the LTO website.

  • rose says:

    Hello. This is my 3rd time to get my student permit, and all of them are valid for 1 YEAR. Student permits should be at least 1 month valid before one can apply for a non-pro license, so a 1 week validity would be contradicting.

    Please correct me if I’m wrong, but I got my license back in 2007, 2008, and now 2013. The permit that I got just this morning says its valid until May 24, 2014, which is next year.

    Hi good day,
    I had my students license last Feb 12, 2009 if i’m not mistaken bout the date. I was sixteen ata that time so back then we had to do a lot of things like notarize a parent’s approval get a TIN and a lot so finally I had my student’s license but unfortunately I lost it together with my wallet, after that wala na ako nagawa about that. Now kukuha sana ako ng bagong student’s license. Ask ko lang po sana if applicable parin yung requirements ng 19 and above? I’m 20 now same parin po ba yung requirements? Kailangan pa ba ng affidavit of loss? If iba na po yung requirements anu- ano pa po iyon? salamat and God bless po
