How to Get a Certificate of Re-stamping from PNP-HPG

Re-stamping of chassis number refers to the process of stamping the chassis number of motor vehicles with defaced chassis numbers. It is usually done by the Land Transportation Office (LTO) or its accredited manufacturer or rebuilder, but not before the registered owner of the motor vehicle (MV) subject for re-stamping has acquired all the requirements and authorization necessary for the procedure. After all, the LTO, as the regulatory body, needs to confirm that the vehicle and its parts are the MV’s original components by matching it with the unique identifiers embedded in the VIN which also includes serial numbers to ensure that no parts of a certain car has been involved in anything shady. Hence, the need for Certificate of Re-stamping from the Philippine National Police – Highway Patrol Group (PNP-HPG). 

In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to secure a Certificate of Re-stamping from the PNP-HPG in order to be able to secure the authorization you need  to have the chassis number re-stamped, regardless if it is for vehicles of which the chassis number is unreadable due to corrosion or one which has been imported from a region that does not require the vehicle identification number (VIN) being stamped in the chassis/frame.

how to get Certificate of Re-stamping from pnp-hpg mvcs

What is a Certificate of Re-stamping

A Certificate of Re-stamping refers to the document issued by the PNP-HPG to the registered MV owner or his/her authorized representative or any applicant for re-stamping. The certification is issued upon request, after the requesting party submits or comply with the documentary requirements necessary in filing of alarm. Its issuance is subject to the approval of the HPG Motor Vehicle Clearing Committee (MVCC) and the PNP-HPG Director and it usually follows actual chassis re-stamping procedures to ensure that the chassis number, also known as the vehicle identification number (VIN) or frame number, is visible and readable. 

The Certificate of Re-stamping is a document that ensures that the LTO as well as the Duty Inspector in charge of the MV’s Motor Vehicle Inspection Report (MVIR) will see that any stenciling or macro-etching procedure done on the subject MV is completed by LTO-accredited manufacturer or rebuilder legally. 

Re-stamping of Tampered, Defaced or Corroded Engine and Chassis Numbers of Motor Vehicles

There are two reasons why one would need to secure a certificate of re-stamping: One, when re-stamping recovered stolen motor vehicles with tampering, and two, for re-stamping of motor vehicles with no tampering. 

Re-stamping of Recovered Stolen/Carnapped Motor Vehicle with Tampering

Motor vehicles with tampered engine and/or chassis numbers whose identities are subsequently identified through expert findings of the PNP Crime Laboratory Group or any equivalent office of other law enforcement agencies should be re-stamped in order to restore their original identities. The recovered Motor Vehicles with tampered engine and/or chassis number included the Vehicle Information Management System (VIMS) must first apply for lifting of the alarm prior to the application for Re-stamping.

Re-stamping of Motor Vehicles with no Tampering (Re-stamping as a Result of Natural Deterioration)

Motor Vehicles with corroded and unreadable engine and/or chassis numbers as a result of their ordinary wear and tear, acts of nature, and other circumstances, incidents, or accidents that cause their serial numbers to be freckled and/or tarnished must also apply for re-stamping to reinstate their original identities.

Benefits of Securing a Certificate of Re-Stamping

The actual re-stamping of chassis numbers actually comes with certain benefits, sure. But the acquisition of a certificate of re-stamping ensures that the subject MV will have:

  • Easier renewal of vehicle registration 

  • A legal document showing the Clear and visible VIN for easier MV verification

  • Visible chassis number for checking for apprehensions and alarm

  • Clean MVIR

  • Better chassis readability for verification of public authorities purposes
