January 09, 2020 Dear Bernard Tipan, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Dec 07, 2019 11:15 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch. Your Request You asked for Procedure including the turn-around time on getting the OR/CR for a newly-purchased motorcycle. Response to Request Your FOI request is approved. As per LTO guideline, the period in getting the OR/CR, stickers and motor vehicles plates from the date of purchase of the motorcycle from the dealer is seven (7) days. The registration process starts upon dealer’s submission of complete requirements to LTO, such as Certificate of Stock Report (CSR), Sales Invoice, Certificate of Insurance Cover and PNP Clearance. In case the dealer failed to register the vehicle within that specified period, the vehicle owner is advised to file a complaint to the LTO. Upon investigation and issuance of a Show Cause order, the dealer is directed to submit a written explanation why their Accreditation should not be revoked for failure to comply with the standard requirements under Section 9.2.2 of Administrative Order No. AVT-2014-023 dated 23 January 2014. The vehicle owner should coordinate with the LTO for further assistance.
