As of April 20, 2022, the Land Transportation Office National Capital Region – East has released a sizable list of replacement license plates that are ready to be released to their respective owners. So if you’ve been waiting for your vehicle’s plate, you better pay attention.
Note that the plates we're talking about are replacement plates, not new ones
The said plates are now available for release in the several district offices under the aforementioned LTO division. Here’s the list:
| LTO District Office | Plate ending numbers |
| Marikina District Office | Plates ending in 1 to 4 |
| Pasig District Office | Plates ending in 1 to 4 |
| Public Utility Vehicle Registration Center | Plates ending in 1 to 5 |
| Taguig Extension Office | Plates ending in 1 to 4 |
| Quezon City District Office | Plates ending in 1 to 3 |
| La Loma District Office | Plates ending in 1 to 4 |
| San Juan District Office | Plates ending in 1 to 5 |
| Valenzuela District Office | Plates ending in 1 to 3 |
| Novaliches District Office | Plates ending in 1 to 4 |
| Mandaluyong Extension Office | Plates ending in 1 to 5 |
| Diliman District Office | Plates ending in 1 to 5 (1 to 6 for government vehicles) |
Of note, the full list can be viewed on the LTO NCR East website. This is divided into several spreadsheets, so viewing them via a laptop or desktop is recommended.
For an easier time looking for your plate, one should use the built-in search function. This can be done by pressing “CTRL+F”, typing in your plate number, then pressing enter.
If you have difficulties doing that, the LTO NCR East website itself has a chat function. A representative will then address whatever concern you may have regarding your car’s plate number.
Time to give these ancient ones a rest
Furthermore, be sure to remember where your car’s initial registration was processed. If your car was registered at the Novaliches District Office for example, then you won’t be able to find it in the files for the other district offices.
When claiming your plate, just present your car’s certificate of registration, the latest official receipt, and a valid government-issued ID.
