In a virtual press briefing, DoTr Assistant Secretary Giovanni Z. Lopez said Transportation Secretary Arthur P. Tugade has convinced MVIC owners to reduce their rates similar to the fees being charged by private emission testing centers (PETCs).
“Ibig sabihin niyan, ibababa na lamang sa P600 ang fee sa pag-inspect ng mga pribadong sasakyan, P500 naman ang inspection fee para sa mga motorsiklo, at P300 para sa mga jeepneys (This means that the inspection fee for private vehicles will be reduced to P600, P500 for motorcycles, and P300 for jeepneys),” Lopez told reporters.
He also mentioned that MVICs will not be charging re-inspection fees to any vehicles for at least one year.
