What is LTO Cavite? 

LTO Cavite can mean either the Cavite District Office or any of the different LTO offices in the Cavite province. This includes the six (6) LTO district offices in Bacoor, Dasmariñas, Cavite City, Carmona, Imus, and Tagaytay. There are also three Driver’s License Renewal Offices (DLRO) located in Imus, Dasmariñas, and General Trias. To help bring their services closer to the people of Cavite, the LTO has also established an extension office in Naic and a regular licensing center in Kawit, Cavite. 

Bacoor District Office

The LTO Bacoor District Office (DO) opened at the Revilla Business Park was designed to be a one-stop-shop for all private and public vehicle transactions in Bacoor City. It was meant to improve the service delivery of LTO in the area, offering not only registration and licensing services but also government transactions and driver education. It also includes a transportation hub, a Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) office, and a Motor Vehicle Inspection System (MVIS) center facility so the Caviteños no longer have to go to different locations to make these government transactions.

Imus DLRO

The LTO has also set up a Driver’s License Renewal Office (DLRO) in Imus as an attempt to carry out its mandate to conveniently satisfy the public’s need for permit and licenses before driving. The DLRO is located on the 3rd floor of  Robinsons Mall Imus and is open during mall hours. Being set up in a mall, it is an ideal choice for motorists who go to malls to either shop or dine conveniently. 

Dasmariñas District Office

The LTO Dasmariñas District Office is an extension of the agency meant to carry out its services and deliver it to the Caviteños living in Dasmariñas, Cavite and surrounding areas. It was converted into the regular district office that it is now by virtue of the Republic Act No. 10338. 

Dasmariñas DLRO

The Dasmariñas DLRO is just one of the numerous Driver’s License Renewal Offices (DLROs) launched by the LTO to offer a more convenient service alternatives to people in Dasmariñas, Cavite who wish to process plain renewal of driver’s and conductor’s licenses without alarm or change in information.

Kawit (formerly Cavite) District Office

Formerly known as the Cavite City District Office, this LTO Office is now known as Kawit District Office right after it transferred to a different site in Brgy. Putol in Kawit, Cavite on June 19, 2010.  

General Trias DLRO

Opened as one of the first LTO DLROs in the country on July 2017, the General Trias DLRO was launched to bring the LTO services closer to the citizens not only from the City of General Trias but also from nearby towns like Rosario, Tanza, Trece Martires, Naic, and Margondon, among others.

Carmona District Office

The LTO Carmona District Office is one of the LTO offices established during the pandemic to cater to the exponential growth of private vehicle owners in residential subdivisions which are best served by an LTO district office.

Cavite Licensing Center

The Cavite Licensing Center is a regular LTO licensing center converted from being the LTO Licensing Center in the Municipality of Kawit on August 2018 by virtue of the Republic Act 11065. 

Imus District Office

The LTO Imus District Office is an LTO office situated at the two-story, glass facade, LTO office building with an area of 1,135 sq.m. It was inaugurated in May 2021 to serve more clients and cater to all of their LTO-mandated requirements through its enhanced operational capacity. 

Naic Extension Office

The LTO office in the coastal municipality of Naic, Cavite is a regular extension office set up by the agency to implement programs and offer services to the surrounding areas and the population within.

Tagaytay District Office

This LTO district office is strategically located in Tagaytay City in the province of Cavite. It used to be  an LTO extension office in Tagaytay City, before it was converted into a regular district office in May 2016 by virtue of the Republic Act No. 10784.

Where is Cavite?

Cavite, which is officially known as the Province of Cavite, is a province in the Philippines located in the CALABARZON region (Region 4A). It is located on the southern shores of Manila Bay, southwest of Manila. It is also bordered by the province of Batangas on the south and the South China Sea on its west side. On the map, you can see it on the south side of the Metro Manila area. 

Much of Cavite, particularly the northern urbanized conurbation, is currently having a growth spurt, marked by continuous developments of subdivisions, malls, and industrial parks. Most areas of the Cavite province are also accessible by local public transport, but with many new residents buying cars, the increased demand for LTO offices is justified. The province is also plagued by daily traffic jams, particularly in the cities though public transport is still quite a popular option.

List of LTO Driver’s Education Center Locations

The Land Transportation Office Driver Education Centers (LTO DECs) were launched by the Land Transportation Office (LTO) in a bid to help provide road safety training for student drivers, particularly those who are incapable of paying the steep fees that regular driving schools charge. It offers free training meant to teach drivers to recognize risk and potential consequences, making the roads just a little bit safer for the general public. The LTO DECs also offer the mandatory 15-hour training course that all drivers or aspiring drivers need to complete, the Theoretical Driving Course (TDC).

What is PNP-HPG? Philippine National Police – Highway Patrol Group

The Philippine National Police – Highway Patrol Group (PNP-HPG), just like the Land Transportation Office (LTO), is a government-managed organization meant to ensure road safety in the Philippines. It was established as the brainchild of Ramon Magsaysay, the 7th President of the Philippines, after a fatal car crash in 1954 claimed the lives of two statesmen close to him.

For 68 years now, the group has been offering invaluable contributions to society, by living up to its mandate to enforce the traffic laws and regulations and promote safety consciousness through inter-agency cooperation. Just recently, the group celebrated its 68th founding anniversary where they were recognized for their crucial role in maintaining peace, order, and security on the nation’s roads, emphasizing on the impact on the continuing success as the premier guardian of the Philippine highways.
