The Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun has approved an extension of the grace period for the enforcement of Tinted Glass Permit requirement to the 12th of August, 2025.
Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi in a statement issued Saturday said the extension came on the heels of several concerns and feedback expressed by members of the public regarding the reactivation of the digital Tinted Glass Permit application process.
He noted: “In line with our commitment to delivering transparent, inclusive, and citizen-focused policing, the Force wishes to affirm that it has not ignored the voices of Nigerians.
“Rather, these voices have been instrumental in guiding ongoing reviews of the process to ensure it remains user-friendly, secure, and accessible to all.
“The extension of enforcement is also intended to give room for additional enhancements and refinements to the application process, ensuring that no member of the public is unduly disadvantaged.”
Adejobi noted that the police was actively working to simplify and improve both the physical and contactless application options including enhanced verification mechanisms and streamlined procedures to reduce delays and eliminate undue inconveniences.
He stressed that members of the public are reminded that the authorised platform for the application and renewal of the Tinted Glass Permit is accessible via possap.gov.ng.
Adejobi said citizens are also encouraged to report all unauthorised or hidden charges as well as extortion in the course of application or biometric capturing to the appropriate Police authorities, including via the dedicated hotline: 09169967000.
