The Land Transportation Office (LTO) announced that all backlogged motor vehicle plates dating from 2014 to 2023 is now available.

According to Executive Director Atty. Greg Pua this was made possible through budget allocations under President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s administration, which enabled the agency to double its production capacity.

To ensure plates reach vehicle owners, the LTO launched the “Stop, Plate and Go” initiative wherein motorcycles without plates are flagged by enforcers, verified on the spot, and issued their plates immediately.

Motorists can also check plate availability via the LTO Tracker, accessible through the eGov app. Distribution efforts are scaling up, with events planned in high-traffic areas such as mall parking lots and PEZA zones.

LTO’s goal is to distribute 7.5 million plates by October 31, 2025, with a target of 100,000 plates per day.

Pua said motorists caught operating an unregistered vehicle are required to pass a road worthiness inspection before being successfully granted their vehicle’s registration.

LTO will continue its “Stop, Plate and Go” initiative on August 8, 2025, 3:00 PM at the 5th Floor Parking Level of SM North EDSA.
