How to Verify Vehicle LTO Plate Number via SMS / te xt and know if it’s carnapped or with badrecord of apprehensionPosted on August 6, 2012 by transportation office
There are literally so many purposes for verification of a vehicle’s plate number. First off, you have to realize that
it is not so easy before when you want to know to whom a vehicle is registered or if that vehicle has a bad record in
the LTO in terms of driver apprehension or if it is alarmed in the Land Transportation Office as a hot car or
carnapped vehicle.
Here is a short guide for all who want to get the details of a vehicle in as fast as 1 minute. Yes, believe me you can
now do it at that lightning fast pace because the LTO already had a system wherein all you have to do is to send a
txt message (via SMS) to verify any vehicle’s plate number and know if it is a hot car (carnapped) or if it has a bad
record in LTO. See the guide picture below.
As of the writing of this post, August 6, 2012, this txt and SMS system verification method still works. I know it
because I have tested it just now before posting it here for 100% reliability. I used my own car to test it out and
presto! The results were amazingly and surprisingly 100% correct. You can try it to see if it still works by:
With your cellphone / mobile phone, just key in:
LTO<space>VEHICLE<space>[plate number of your vehicle] and send to 2600.

(Ex. LTO VEHICLE DEF123)
All you have to do after this process is to wait for about 5-10 seconds until the auto-generated reply arrives in your
inbox.
LTO has this system as the fastes it has ever given chance to verify a vehicle basic information and specification
plus model number and make. To be exact, I checked my inbox and these are the details provided in the
auto-generated txt reply:
Car Plate – Model – Year of Manufacturing – Color – Date Last Registered in LTO – LTO Apprehension/ records
and LTO Alarm (if any, referring to if your vehicle has been reported stolen or carnapped by the owner).
Please note that this can now be used by the proper authorities to get to crooks especially those carnappers who
get caught in a checkpoint so beware all you scumbags!
Special Note: On per text message cost, a sent message with confirmation will cost the texter a Php 2.50. This text
and SMS verification system by the LTO has been tested personally by me and the good news is that it definitely
works for Smart, Globe and Sun Cellular users. I’m not so sure if it does the same for Touch Mobile, Red Mobile
and the rest of the telco providers.
For an idea on the part of the vehicle owner, to avoid staying too long for the questioning of police officers in a
checkpoing or a military authority, all you have to do is to show them the message and if your vehicle is totally
clear of any records that could cause you to be apprehended, then you will not have to stay too long for
questioning.
Another great tip where you can use this system is for verification of the registration of a second-hand car or used
automobile you want to buy. This way, you can get assurance that it is clean before you get to pay for it or it’s too
late. Remember that buying a hot car can cause you the same case as a carnapper.
To Remember: This registration verification via SMS is effective only for private cars> I am not sure to this date if
LTO is planning to include all vehicles sooner or if it already included in the system / database of inquiry such as
(motorcycles, taxis, tricycles, trucks, etc.). You can use this system, however to verify if it does work for other
vehicles by using the system. I don’t have a jeep, tricycle, truck or a motorcycle to test it with so please bear with
me. On the other hand, there are other related uses listed below taken from the official website of the LTO
Philippines.

I had a bad doubt that I am dealing with hot car that I want to buy. I just found the advertisement from a website of car for
sale and after exchanging mail with the owner, I feel that the owner of the said car is not really the owner or they are a
syndicate trying to con a customer. This is because when I asked all legal document from the owner, he just simply not
response anymore. And during our email conversation, the said advertisement when I come to the weblink is not available
anymore and saying it may be sold or remove by owner. If I am selling car, I will not removed it till i find a buyer and sold it
and we are in the middle of how to visualize car, road test, check the document. The owner told me to send my address and
phone and he will deliver the car without cost on my side even the car will not suite on my taste(by the way I am in abroad
and the owner of car said that he is in abroad too and only his carrier will deliver the car that is why we are dealing thru email
only). Would you please help me track this car if it is hot or carnapped or a faked advertisement. I will send the detail plate of
car, carrier name and address according to his driver’s license and the one who claimed that he is the lawyer of the car owner
with driver’s license also attached on their mail to me. I have all this on my mail and our conversation. Thank you very much.
