Thinking of preparing to drive in Australia from the Philippines?

Well, I had created this post as I just acquired my LTO-DFA document just yesterday and thought of sharing the steps on how to get one.

Different Australian states requires our present PHL driver's license at least 3 months validity. This document might help in ensuring that we are at least an experienced driver here.

LTO PROCESS:

1.) Go the East Avenue, Diliman Quezon City LTO main branch.

2.) Secure an application form. You may locate the application window inside the chapel.

3.) After filling up the form, present your current LTO driver's license for verification.

4.) Photocopy your driver's license. Photocopying machine is located outside and attach.

4.) Proceed to cashier for payment. (Make sure your name reflects the same as application)

 I paid around 495 pesos for the LTO fee. Applicants were not that much as I came there.

5.) Claim stub shall be given. This shall be presented next to DFA on specified date.

*Note: DFA schedule is set a week after

DFA PROCESS:

1.) Proceed to DFA, Aseana Roxas Boulevard. (Make sure at least 2-3 weeks after LTO process)

2.) Find the drop box for "LTO" where you will drop your LTO claim stub and proceed.

3.) Wait until name is called. The DFA shall call you using a public microphone and proceed to

 designated window.

4.) You will present your ID ( I had used my LTO driver's licence ) to verify my name accurately.

5.) Wait until name is called. A window officer shall give you attached document. Check it.

 This comes with an official DFA receipt.

6.) Proceed to cashier for payment of fees. This comes cheap at PHP 100 only.

7.) Wait until name is called for the claiming of your DFA authenticated certificate. This appear

 as a document with red ribbon on its left most corner of the paper. Check well before you

 leave DFA premises.

Good day to all! Share your inquiries and I will be much willing to assist.
