Office

The Land Transportation Office (LTO) in Dasmariñas City in the province of Cavite is made up of a set of two LTO offices: the LTO Dasmariñas District Office (DO) and the LTO Dasmariñas Driver’s License Renewal Office (DLRO). These LTO offices were opened to serve the city and all the people within its geographical area of responsibility (GAOR), through the extension of the agency’s operations. The creation of these LTO offices allowed the agency to offer more accessible and convenient LTO services to the people. The LTO Dasmariñas Offices are also operated well in the hopes of making the LTO more effective in their regulation so the public can be rest assured of their safety on the road.

As the “University Capital of Cavite” classified as one of the largest and most competitive cities in the country with over 750,000 residents, Dasmariñas deserves the LTO offices within its territory. Not only does it house a huge population, but with the sheer number of students and other people in the area, the agency is hard-pressed to keep the roads safe through more effective driver education, licensing, registration, and regulation, without the inconvenience of spending so much time, effort, and money on the end of the local motorists, drivers, and car owners who try to avail of and keep up with the LTO rules and regulatory policies.

What is LTO Dasmariñas? 

LTO Dasmariñas refers to the LTO offices stationed in Dasmariñas City, Cavite: the LTO Dasmariñas District Office (DO) and the LTO Dasmariñas Driver’s License Renewal Office (DLRO). Just like the other LTO offices, the LTO Dasmariñas offices are operated in hopes of manifesting the agency’s efforts and to bridge the LTO programs and the people—including the motorists, drivers, car owners, and operators in Dasmariñas City and its neighboring areas. The LTO offices in the city were physical manifestations of the agency’s desire to serve its mandate and ensure that their core programs and services—including the registration of motor vehicles (MV) and license and permits applications and renewals—are offered more conveniently, especially to the people whose work is done primarily behind the wheels or those who can’t afford to take the time off to travel to another place for their LTO-related needs.

Sabang, a district on the northern part of Dasmariñas, considered to be the richest land in city.

For this reason, the LTO Dasmariñas District Office is operated to be as effective as can be in offering the agency’s core programs and services, including applications and renewal of licenses and permits, registration and renewal of motor vehicles (MV) and motorcycle registrations, and renewal with revision of records for the people of the city of Dasmariñas.

Where is Dasmariñas City

Dasmariñas, colloquially shortened to Dasma, and officially known as the City of Dasmariñas, is a first class landlocked component city in the province of Cavite. Dubbed as the “university city” and with the goal of becoming the “ideal city of Cavite,” Dasmariñas, right now, is the largest city both in terms of area and population in Cavite and the wealthiest Local Government Unit (LGU) in terms of city in the province.

Geographically, Dasmariñas City has a total land area of about 8,234 hectares (20,350 acres). It sits 10 kilometers (6.2 mi) from Imus and 30 kilometers (19 mi) south of Manila, and was created as a result of the growing congestion and outward urban expansion of the Manila Metropolitan area. The city itself is bounded by Imus and Bacoor to the north, Silang to the south, Muntinlupa City and Las Piñas City in southern Metro Manila to the north east, General Mariano Alvarez (GMA) and the City of San Pedro in Laguna to the east, and General Trias to the west. It is served by corridors traversing the central areas of the city and providing linkages to the Metropolitan Manila core area and the developing nodes of Laguna and Batangas.
