MANILA, Philippines — The proposed design for the new driver’s license, which will be valid for five years, has been made public by the House of Representatives’ committee on transportation.

The front of the proposed license appears cleaner and more spacious because the bar code has been transferred to the back. The information in the license also now includes the driver’s blood type.

If a driver commits no violation within five years, the license’s validity can be extended to 10 years.

The bill extending the validity of the driver’s license is awaiting President Rodrigo Duterte’s signature.
