According to a statement released by the Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, on Monday, the decision follows a surge in applications through the official portal, which he said reflects increased public compliance.
The statement partly read, “The Inspector General of Police has approved a further extension of the grace period for the enforcement of the Tinted Glass Permit requirement for vehicles with tinted windows, with the new enforcement date now set for October 2, 2025.
“This decision follows a significant surge in applications via the official portal, reflecting heightened public compliance with the directive. In light of this, the Force considers it imperative to allow sufficient time for the meticulous scrutiny of applications to ensure that the permit is issued only to eligible and qualified individuals, in line with national security considerations.”
