❌SCAM Alert


This guy called Israel (the OP) is a coded scàmmeér. Once you send him money to process the Tinted for you, he'll start giving you excuses, attributing the delay on the Police portal. He'll regret trying such nonsense with me.

@HopeGying — I understand your anger, but let’s be factual here.

I’ve never requested payment from anyone on this platform.

Since scammers cloned my name earlier in the year, I’ve been warning everyone to double-check any number that doesn’t match mine.

For clarity:
✅ I don’t process permits.
✅ I only publish verified guides and educational content.
✅ My new and only official contact is 07016164297 (text only).

If you truly sent money to someone, please share a screenshot (privately if you prefer). We’ll verify together.

Transparency is the only way forward. Let’s clear this publicly once and for all.

erico2k2:
I drive from PH to warri and to benin when Im i n 9ja,there is a way to talk to the police to earn thier respect, and make sure you have all papers correct, nah people like me petition police wey make court say make them hold on so,This matter affect people wey matter hence the suspension.Put that clip of the PRO and print the statement amongst your documents, Leave home early if you wan travel give enough time and allowance for police.Also I will like to mention, not every car police dey stop dem dey sellect cars wey dem dey stop,Toyota drivers una sorry ohhh Jokes

@erico2k2 — 100% correct. Most officers on the road know the process is on pause, but as you said, some still act unaware.

Carrying the PRO’s official suspension notice is smart — helps avoid unnecessary back-and-forth.

And you’re right, not every car gets stopped; sometimes it’s selective enforcement. Thanks for your mature contribution.

[quote author=Dwarfgod post=137112511][/quote]@Dwarfgod — You actually made a valid point earlier about road experience. Many people don’t know there’s a difference between “portal active” and “permit approval active.”

That confusion is what scammers exploit.

I’m here tonight to clarify those gray areas and bring back sanity to this discussion once and for all.

@SmartRider — The Police Tinted Permit application portal is still active, but all new approvals are temporarily suspended nationwide.

You can still create an account or log in, but the final authorization step won’t go through till Police HQ lifts the restriction.

Anyone claiming they can “get it done fast” right now is not being sincere. Patience saves stress.

@LadyK22 — Yes, if you already have an approved permit tied to your plate number, you can still renew it when the portal reopens.

Keep both your email approval and printed copy safe. They remain valid until official updates say otherwise.

@AutoPrince — If you already have a valid permit, move with a printout in your glove box.

But if you don’t, please avoid deep tints for now. Some commands are still enforcing the temporary suspension strictly.

Don’t panic; the goal is compliance, not harassment.

Tonight, I’m not here to sell.
I’m here to restore calm and clarity.

I’ve seen the questions… the confusion… the frustration.
Some people applied and got stuck halfway.
Some don’t even know if the portal still works.
Some already gave up entirely.

So tonight, let’s drop the panic and talk facts only.

I’ll be replying everyone patiently one by one with the most recent updates, verified links, and realistic expectations.

If you’ve been confused about your tinted glass permit, this is the thread to stay glued to tonight.

No drama. No argument. Just clarity and truth.

Let’s bring back sanity to this conversation.

Hello everyone,

A quick factual update for drivers and vehicle owners who’ve been asking questions about the tinted-glass permit system.

1️⃣ Why the process is paused:
The Nigeria Police Force confirmed that the online application portal is undergoing internal review following a court directive. Until that’s completed, no new permits are being issued.

2️⃣ What vehicle owners can do meanwhile:

Keep all other documents current (licence, insurance, proof of ownership, etc.).

Carry a printed copy of the Police PRO’s public statement on the suspension.

Remain calm and polite at checkpoints—officers are aware of the situation.


3️⃣ How to verify updates:
Visit the official Police digital services portal or follow verified Police social-media pages for any restart notice.

4️⃣ Why this matters:
Knowing the real status helps you avoid misinformation and scammers claiming to “fast-track” permits.

This thread is for factual discussion and clarification only—no processing, no collection, no shortcuts.

Thanks to everyone who’s kept the conversation civil and informative.

HopeGying, I completely understand your frustration — but please note that I have never requested or collected payment from anyone on this platform.

Every message I’ve posted here has been transparent and verifiable.
The Tinted Glass Permit process is currently suspended nationwide (as the Police PRO has publicly stated).

My InfoGuide was created for educational purposes only, and I’ve repeatedly warned users to beware of impersonators using my name or logo.

If you’ve had any issue, please share proof of payment and proof of conversation so we can verify whether it was really me or one of the fake accounts circulating around Nairaland.

I’m all for transparency and accountability — that’s why I publish guides instead of offering hidden “processing.”

Perception beat reality anytime

Good afternoon everyone,

I’ve noticed several mixed comments here again, so let me make things perfectly clear — transparently and factually.

✅ 1. The Tinted Permit process has indeed been suspended temporarily by the Police authorities pending internal reviews and a court matter. I personally confirmed this through my channels.

✅ 2. The guide I shared here was written long before that suspension notice — and it was created purely for educational and informational purposes, not for collecting money or processing on behalf of anyone.

✅ 3. I’ve repeatedly warned that scammers have cloned my username on this same forum. Anyone messaging you privately asking for money or claiming to “help you get it faster” is a fake.

My goal remains the same — to help Nigerian car owners understand how government systems actually work, so that people can handle things properly when official processes resume.

You can verify every step directly through the official Police digital portal — I’ve never hidden that link or claimed to be a backdoor.

Thanks to everyone who has remained objective and civil here.
Let’s keep it about facts, not fear.

UPDATE: What I Just Discovered About The “Tax Clearance Merge” — It’s Deeper Than You Think 😳

You remember how I said something big is moving quietly?
Well… the more I dig, the more I realize we might be standing on the edge of Nigeria’s biggest data-control project since BVN.

I just confirmed from two insiders (a bank compliance officer and a local tax consultant) that there’s a pilot framework under the Joint Tax Board linking:

✅ BVN
✅ NIN
✅ and a soon-to-launch Unified Tax Identity (UTI) system.

The idea isn’t new — but this time, the test isn’t in Lagos alone.
Early integration is being done in FCT, Rivers, and Ogun.
Once that works, guess what?
They’ll sync it nationwide with the CBN’s new “Know Your Customer 2.0” directive.

Here’s where it gets spicy 🔥 — once this becomes active, you won’t just need a Tax ID to open an account.
You’ll need an active tax record before renewing:

International passport

Company CAC documents

FRSC change-of-ownership

Government grants or contracts


That’s the silent rollout. No circular, no fanfare.

If you’re doubting, look up the recent FIRS Digital Tax Interface Bill submitted quietly in September 2025 — it’s already in committee stage.

This isn’t about collecting ₦5k tax from everyone.
It’s about building a system where every adult Nigerian becomes a traceable financial entity.
Tax status = social status.

So yes, 2026 might actually be the “reset” year — the one where compliance becomes the new citizenship.

Let’s keep this conversation alive.
If you’ve heard any related whispers in your state, drop them below — I’m compiling a report for the next update.

Something big is coming. And this time, it won’t wait for anyone to be ready.

Simplifying Nigeria one system at a time

Smartcitizen:
You see this tax issue that Tinubu's government is operating in secrecy, will make or destroy him.

Have you ever seen any FIRS officer in any part of Nigeria educating the public on the TV show or Radio about this Tax except in Lagos and Abuja. The only man is allowed to talk about this issues is FIRS tax image maker.

How can a policy which will take money away from people which has just been reformed will not be discussed openly and people will ask questions?

Anyway, let's see......

You raised a solid point, Smartcitizen. The quietness around it is exactly what worries me. Nigeria never announces major digital reforms loudly — they just roll out in silence, then wake everyone up with “effective immediately.”

From what I’m seeing, some FIRS backend links with NIN and BVN are already in soft testing under internal MOU. They’re calling it “Tax Identity Integration,” but the clearance angle will come later.

My next update will break that down clearly.

DesChyko:
Even though I pay my taxes, I am happier the coverage will be widespread now; those who had not found reason to speak against bad governance before, will find a reason to; when they consciously file taxes from their income.

In addition, we will see those who will eventually go in for evasion and what they represent; then it will be clear the reason why everyone is positioning wherever they are.

That being said, the record keeping still begs a lot. I noticed some discrepancies in the amount recorded for me on the portal as the annual total and the actual amount I paid; I have email proofs of the actual amounts paid.

A New Nigeria is POssible.

You’re absolutely right — those discrepancies are one of the silent red flags. That’s why the new digital structure might introduce “Tax Reconciliation” stages before the full rollout.

If they don’t fix that, the entire reform will collapse under wrong data. I suspect that’s one reason they’re holding back on public announcements for now.

It’s not just about collecting more tax — it’s about data centralization.

grandstar:
Easyinfoguide

It isn't tax clearance.

Rather, it will be a tax identity number. If you don't have one, you can't operate a bank account or open a new one.

This is to ensure that Nigerians start paying taxes.

True, you’re correct about the TIN side — that’s the official structure. But you’ll notice they’re gradually merging both identity and clearance verification.

For now, it starts as TIN for all citizens, but once the system matures, they’ll use the same framework to confirm your tax status before approving anything sensitive — from vehicle reg to passports.

So technically, it’s not “tax clearance” yet… but it’s walking toward it.

Something Big Is Coming In 2026 — And Only Nigerians With Tax Clearance Will Survive It 😳”You ever hear gist that sounds like nonsense… until you dig deeper and realize maybe it’s not?

That was me a few days ago.

A military man at the car wash — one of those quiet guys who never talk too much — just dropped this line casually:

“By next year, tax clearance go become compulsory for everybody. If you no get am, forget enjoyment.”

We laughed. But the thing kept ringing in my head like a bell.

Because that’s exactly how they started BVN.
That’s how NIN began.
And remember how voters card was once optional? Now try living without it.

When I started checking around, something began to connect…

FIRS is quietly linking personal tax records with NIN and BVN.

Some state governments (Lagos, Rivers, Abuja) already testing integration for passports, business registration, and property purchase.

Rumor says new national verification forms will soon require “TCC Number” beside NIN.


Nobody is shouting about it yet because it’s in pilot phase — and Nigeria likes to spring surprise moves when it’s too late to react.

But think about it:
Every digital reform since 2014 started this exact same way — first whispers, then full lockdown.

Remember when people ignored BVN until their accounts got frozen?
Same pattern.

This new Tax Clearance wave might be the next big filter.
You’ll need it to:

Register a vehicle.

Renew international passport.

Apply for business loans or grants.

Even do certain “change of ownership” at FRSC or Police.


And when the switch finally flips in 2026, the stubborn ones will start running helter-skelter, looking for shortcuts.

But by then… the system would already be locked.

For now, it’s still a whisper.
But from what I’ve seen in the past few days, this is more than rumor.

Something big is moving quietly beneath the surface.

I’ll keep investigating and drop part two soon — breaking down how this “tax clearance revolution” could literally decide who counts as a law-abiding Nigerian in the coming years.

Because this time, it’s not just about money.
It’s about control.

Been busy lately only to come back to see my thread in a not so good state hmm.

Well I'm back now and I've gone through your questions I'll try my best to answer them as soon as possible.

Also got lots of scam notice. So sad imposters are taking advantage of this community. The exact reason I took of my contact information but still I keep getting scam notice.

I no what to do

Good morning everyone,

I just came online to see a few heated comments here, so let me calmly set the record straight once and for all.

First — this thread was originally created to help people understand how the official tinted glass permit process works in Nigeria. Every step I shared here was based on my personal registration experience and verified details from the official Nigeria Police portal.

I’ve never forced or lured anyone to pay me for any service. This post is for educational and awareness purposes only — especially because most car owners don’t even know the right way to go about it.

Secondly, if anyone ever contacts you privately pretending to be me or using my username to request payment, please ignore and report that account immediately. There are fake impersonators on this forum — and even I have seen my username cloned before.

Lastly, I appreciate those who’ve shared genuine questions and experiences here. Let’s keep the discussion civil and helpful so others can learn.

The main goal remains simple — to promote doing things the legal, correct way through the Nigeria Police digital portal, not through shortcuts.

Peace to everyone.

WizardOfNG:
Can we expect any other comment from you, but a negative one, given you were raised in homes and communities where the default attitude is one of hatred and resentment towards Nigeria and your fellow Nigerians?

If the bolded is correct then why do Nigerians excel exemplarily once they reach the diaspora? Today many Westerners, like Candace Owens for example, admit to liking how Nigerians have it "together" in terms of ambition, focus on academic excellence, strong sense of cultural identity, etc, etc.

What gave successful Nigerian diasporans those abilities that enables them to thrive spectacularly in a totally different environment they had no prior experience of other than same Nigeria you claim "has no single benefit" for Nigerians?

I don't know how you people cannot realise how you rush to talk, before you engage your conscious thoughts, Mark you out as rabid and irredeemable haters of Nigeria and Nigerians.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoWHiNGQalE?si=M3J0R14oRIIg0oER

@WizardOfNG – you broke it down perfectly. Nigerians in the diaspora succeed because that ‘hardship’ turned into hardware upstairs. Respect.

Funny thing: this same ‘Nigeria’ people insult trained the men and women feeding half of Africa today. We export more than oil — we export survival instinct.”

I like how everyone’s proving my point without realizing it.
Interesting takes, but none of you have answered why Nigerians still dominate abroad despite ‘bad system’ at home.
Keep it coming, this is exactly the Nigerian fire I’m talking about.

[quote author=Ttalk post=137051325]Negative minds don carry their bad luck enter this beautiful thread.

Mainwhile market has been trending since yesterday evening and still blowing hot, but they are here lamenting about handout from the government.

Negative sets of people [/quot

at least someone still sees beyond the noise. Nigerians underrate the chaos that made them global material.

You people say Nigeria is hell, but how come 80% of Nigerians abroad still sound like Lagos boys and brag about pepper soup? 🤔 We no dey wash our roots finish

😈 Yessss

💣 YOU ARE STUPID IF YOU THINK IT’S NOT A BLESSING TO BE A NIGERIAN — AND HERE’S WHY 😅🤔

Everywhere you go in the world, look around — Nigerians are there. From the streets of London to the clubs of Toronto, from Dubai’s markets to New York’s Uber seats — we dey run am.

We don’t just adapt — we infect.
Our accent becomes the rhythm of Black conversations.
Our slangs become global street code.
Our music becomes the Black world’s heartbeat.

And yet, some of us still say, “Nigeria is hard.” My guy, yes — it’s hard. But that hardness is the reason your brain is built like a generator: you can function without light, structure, or pity.

Let me break it down:

> Being Nigerian is not a curse; it’s a creative advantage disguised as chaos.



While others wait for opportunity, we manufacture it from scratch.
Where others see risk, we see business.
Where others see madness, we see marketing.
That’s why Nigerians dominate whatever they touch — music, comedy, fashion, religion, fraud 😅 (unfortunately), and tech.

We are the Black Powder — the spark that decides what sells, what trends, and what survives in the Black community worldwide.

But most Nigerians don’t know the worth of that powder.
They think the struggle is punishment — when it’s actually training for global domination.



💬 Moral of the story:
Don’t curse your passport. Don’t envy the easy life.
Use your Nigerian madness wisely — because the world has already been buying our energy without even knowing it.

Welcome to the era of the Black Powder Generation. 🔥🇳🇬

honda001:
pls are you saying tunted registration permit has been suspended even after october 2nd

Not cancelled — what’s happening is restriction for non-essential requests. If you applied already, you’re still safe. New entries may face extra checks, but the permit itself hasn’t been scrapped. Best bet is to wrap yours up before October 2nd to avoid surprises.

emmytboy:
I kept on getting something went wrong while doing virtual verification.

Any idea on how to go about this please

That error comes from the portal glitch. Quick fixes that work: – Try very early morning or late night (low traffic hours). – Use desktop mode on your browser (not just phone view). – Clear cache before re-logging in. Most people that tried these steps got past it. If it still blocks you, then it’s the backend server delay, but don’t worry — it eventually clears

2025 Update (September 27)

I see many people still asking: “Is tinted permit cancelled or suspended after October 2nd?”
✅ The truth is: the deadline is still active, but what changed is the verification process. Some people are experiencing “something went wrong” during virtual verification — it’s a system glitch, not your fault.

Key points to note right now:

The portal is still working, but slower than usual.

Doctor’s report is still being requested in some cases.

Suspension talk you’re hearing mostly applies to new fresh registrations not tied to security/medical need, but existing applications are still being processed.

If you keep seeing “error,” don’t give up — try again at non-peak hours (early morning, late night).

Important: If you promised to process before the deadline, do not delay. Many who waited are now rushing, and the system is jammed.

👉 For those who need direct guidance or want the stress handled for them, just reach out. I’ve assisted many successfully already, and I can help you too.

Let’s stay guided. Don’t fall for rumors.

When the name on the car papers doesn’t match the name of the person applying for the tinted permit, the Police portal will usually flag it. There are a few professional ways people resolve it:

1️⃣ Sworn Affidavit of Ownership – The current user swears an affidavit at court stating that the vehicle is legally in their possession. This affidavit + valid ID is often enough to back the application.

2️⃣ Letter of Authorization – If the original owner (the name on the papers) is reachable, they can simply write and sign a letter authorizing you to process the permit, with their ID attached.

3️⃣ Proof of Purchase / Change of Ownership – If you bought the vehicle but the papers haven’t been updated yet, you can attach the sales receipt or change of ownership documents. This usually clears doubts.

4️⃣ Company Vehicles – If it’s registered in a company’s name, then a letter on company letterhead + CAC documents will be needed.

👉 In summary: if snapping the original owner’s ID is not possible, the most straightforward alternative is affidavit of ownership + your own ID. That usually works well in practice.

If the car is in your mum’s name but she’s unavailable, there are still ways around it.

✅ The most straightforward method is to do an affidavit of ownership in your own name. This affidavit simply declares that you are the user/owner of the vehicle even though the registration bears her name. Attach your valid ID (driver’s licence, NIN, or international passport) to support it.

✅ If you want to make it stronger, you can also add a simple proof showing the family connection — e.g., a birth certificate, sworn family affidavit, or any document that links you to her. This isn’t always compulsory, but it gives more weight if the police decide to verify.

✅ Once you have these documents, you can proceed with the tinted permit application without waiting for her physical presence. What the authorities mainly want to confirm is that the vehicle is not stolen and that there’s a clear line of responsibility
