The Nigeria Police Force has approved an extension of the grace period for the enforcement of the Tinted Glass Permit requirement to 12th August 2025.
The Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, an Assistant Commissioner of Police, in a statement said the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetoku, graciously approved the enforcement following ongoing service reviews.
Adejobi explained that this extension comes 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 said that in line with the Force’s commitment to delivering transparent, inclusive, and citizen-focused policing, they have 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.
“The NPF is 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 said.
Reminding the public that the authorised platform for the application and renewal of the Tinted Glass Permit is accessible, Adejobi encouraged citizens to report all unauthorised or hidden charges, as well as extortion, in the course of application or biometric capturing to the appropriate police authorities.
The Nigeria Police Force, he said, remains committed to public safety, digital innovation, and continuous improvement in service delivery and appreciates the cooperation and patience of the Nigerian people as these reforms are carried out.
