LTO SMS Service - TextLTO

TextLTO, a mobile query facility, enables the public to inquire about requirement for various LTO transactions by texting "LTOHELP" to 2600; this service number applies to all mobile networks. A set of keywords guides users toward their desired transactions.

Back then, you’d either have to go to an LTO office and fill-out documents for you to be able to get info about a vehicle or had to know someone from inside to cut red tape – faster processing.
Now, these infos are just “one text away”.

To get info about the vehicle, send the following to 2600:
 
On your cellphone text this message:

LTOspaceVEHICLEspaceABC123

ABC123 stands for your vehicle’s PLATE NUMBER ( Philippines )

i.e. LTO VEHICLE ABC123

SEND to 2600 and wait for auto-generated reply then save to your phone.

(An amount of P2.50 (SMART/GLOBE) or P2.00 (SUN) will be charged when you send to 2600)

A reply message from 2600 will inform you the following about the plate number:

Car Plate:
Model:
Year:
Color:
Date of Last Registered:
LTO Apprehension: if any
LTO Alarm: if any


You could also check for license details.


LTOVEHICLE11 digit license number


Now this is verrrrry helpful in making inquiries faster.. and if you are buying a second hand car, you can now verify the details first fast and easy.
As you can see from the above info,  no name or address was given. So invasion of privacy is not an issue here.
