Purpose and Compliance

The directive was issued in response to concerns about renewal registrations being processed without proper DFA endorsement.
It emphasizes maintaining the integrity of the registration process for diplomatic vehicles.
Relevant government offices, particularly those involved in vehicle registration such as the Land Transportation Office (LTO), are reminded to comply strictly with this procedure.

Legal Authority and Implementation

The memorandum was adopted on 16 July 2009 and signed by Assistant Secretary Arturo C. Lomibao.
The issuance is consistent with existing protocols governing diplomatic accreditation and privileges.
Non-compliance may result in administrative sanctions or delays in processing registrations but specific penalties are not enumerated in the memorandum.
