CDE Certificates should only be obtained from their office, LTMS or accredited driving schools

Luzon LTO branches will now start issuing 10-year valid driver's licenses

The LTO allows for early undertaking of Comprehensive Driver's Education

President Duterte assures that LTO branches nationwide will be ready to issue 10-year driver's licenses by December 2021.

A lawmaker wants to halt the LTO's CDE requirement prior to renewing a driver's license. He says the agency has no basis for requiring such a seminar.

The new seminar and tests required when renewing at select LTO offices are designed to weed out undeserving drivers.

Only pilot LTO branches issuing 10-year DL will require a 5-hour seminar for renewals.

Renewing your driver’s license? You’ll need to undergo a Comprehensive Driver’s Education (CDE), which you can get at accredited centers or the LTMS Portal.

LTO will finally start rolling out 10-year valid driver’s licenses for qualified riders by the end of this month.

It's not unique. Drivers in these countries don’t need to renew their license every 5 years.
