Hope this helps everyone. If yours is a different/delicate case, drop it here — I’ll explain more.
1. “How much did you pay to Remita?” & “How much did you pay?”

Reply:

> I paid the standard NPF Remita fee — it changes a bit each year but stays around ₦2,000 – ₦3,000.
After payment, I got my application number immediately, then started tracking the process.
(Note: That fee is separate from any service help fee.)




---

2. “Did you have to settle anyone at the police station?”

Reply:

> Truthfully, no settlement/grease-money was needed.
The process is supposed to be digital — just Remita payment, correct document upload, scheduling biometrics, and then approval.
If anyone mentions “police station fee,” they’re referring to outdated whispers, not the current online-only workflow.





---

3. “Is it a requirement even for factory-tinted cars? How about normal wraps?”

Reply:

> Yes, factory-tinted glass still requires a permit — the portal includes “factory-fitted” as a valid reason.
For wraps (normal tinted film), it’s the same: You pick “factory”, “security” or “medical” > upload justification.
Just make sure you include clear supporting documents — that’s why some applications get stuck or delayed.





---

4. “What sort of medical reason will require one to have tinted glass?”

Reply:

> Medical reasons include eye sensitivity to glare or chronic light-triggered headaches.
If you include a basic doctor's letter stating your need, the police approve it — no need for elaborate checkups.
Factory tint and privacy/security are also accepted reasons.





---

5. “My registration payment done but SMS no show, portal says pending after 10 days, what next?”

Reply:

> That happens — sometimes SMS doesn’t drop, or your work email blocks it.
First, log into the portal directly and check status.
If still “pending” after 10 working days, go to any SIB (e.g., Ikeja or Onikan) for biometrics.
That move usually kicks the system back into action. Been there, saw it work.





---

6. “What if vehicle registered under deceased brother’s name but I’m using it?”

Reply:

> No wahala — it’s allowed. You just need a Letter of Authority or Affidavit stating you’re the current user.
Upload that under “Vehicle Ownership” docs and proceed normally. The portal accepts it — I saw someone do it.





---

7. “If application is rejected, will NPF refund?”

Reply:

> Once you pay Remita, there's no refund — it’s non-refundable.
But you can re-apply with correct info.
To avoid that waste, ensure your uploads are correct first time — email, docs, justification — then go biometric.
Avoid “pending forever” delays.




---

8. “Which state did you do capturing? I was told they don’t do it there.”

Reply:

> I did mine at SIB Ikeja (or Onikan/Abuja).
Some SIB offices have paused capturing — that’s why guys get redirected.
If one station says no, just go to Ikeja or the zonal HQ — they always dey active.

femi20:
Take note if your car is factory fitted, U don't need any backing document or doctor's report to upload. The doctor's report is meant for non factory tinted cars. I did mine without any doctor report. Just select factory fitted and U are good to go as long as Ur car is factory fitted. Have helped about three people and it went through

True boss — sometimes it goes through, especially when the system is soft. But for long-term approval peace of mind, it’s safer to attach small proof. Na that one we dey teach now to avoid unnecessary delay. Respect 🙌

“If you need that sample upload + note format I use for Factory Tinted, DM or reach my WhatsApp. It dey work 99.9%.”

foolbuster:
Lolz, you dey give 6 months guarantee for over 5 years old Benz 😂
Either you are lying or you are new.

You raise good concern and I no go lie — I like say you observe well.

But make I clear one thing: the 6-month guarantee no mean say na factory warranty. Na private service support we dey give for serious buyers wey no wan carry bad belle home.

E cover major faults like engine, gear, ECU malfunction — if e happen due to normal usage, we go help fix (terms apply of course).

I no dey run boys package.🤝

The goal na to build trust — no be every seller go talk like this publicly.

stampo:
Please I want to find out if this is the only car documents that need to be done on the police website ??

Factory-fitted is a legit option on the portal — but you must still upload a supporting document or justification, or else the portal go hang your application on “Pending Forever FC” 😅

🧠 Breakdown of the 3 Reasons You Can Pick:

1️⃣ Medical 🩺

Best for people claiming light sensitivity, migraines, or eye issues.

Upload Needed: Medical report (typed, signed, stamped by clinic/hospital).

Easy to get & very common.


2️⃣ Security 🔐

Best for high-profile individuals, government workers, or sensitive profession.

Upload Needed: Official letter of endorsement or work ID, e.g., from DSS, company, law firm, etc.

Not advisable if you don’t have such backing — e fit delay you.


3️⃣ Factory Fitted 🚘

This is what people with Tokunbo or brand-new rides from Europe/US select.

Upload Needed:
✅ A clear photo of the car showing the factory tint
✅ Some people also attach a manufacturer’s sticker, VIN tag, or the glass itself showing factory tint coding
✅ In the reason field, you simply write:

“This vehicle was imported with factory-installed privacy glass. The tint is not aftermarket.”

💥 HOT TIP:

Even if your tint is factory-fitted, don’t just select that and leave uploads blank. The system doesn’t care unless you show evidence.

If you want my personal factory-fitted upload sample + the format I use to write the explanation (which works), I fit send you a copy — just say so.


---

📌 What To Do If You’ve Already Selected “Factory Fitted”:

Go back to your dashboard

Click "Edit Application" or "Update Documents"

Upload:

A photo showing the tinted windows clearly

Screenshot of VIN or glass marking

A typed note that explains factory tint (PDF or Word)

> I no dey loud fake lifestyle. I dey loud impact.

Helped one guy behind the scenes. Next thing: ₦50K alert funny I didn't even remember the exact problem nor even the time and date to me it was just curious honestly not even give just cruise

Getting the tint permit guide is not so stressful if well equipped with the right and simple information not all dose big grammar information noo, simple and straightforward information for easy understanding and remembrance you should know what I mean

So government provided us with website to register for tint permit but did not tell us it functions best and fastest by 11pm to 5am Nawa oh

Did you also know you can do all the online process from start to finish using only your phone. I mean android at least not ur touch light o, lol
But don't use Opera Mini browser and please don't tell them I told you,
I can't explane.... Chrome is better or kiwi both did not pay for advert

another thing if you can get two phones it will be easier because of copy and paste wahala,
so U just look from the other phone then type on your main phone that way no need to be opening and closing different applications and then get frustrated I have experienced this first hand Hmm.

Why kill yourself on Lagos as primary location when other states are looking for people to attend too?
Now u see why so many are still pending abi...
I have tried several states for clients and discovered if u 3 States that will process without 4 working days and that changed major part of my tint permit business u can imagine such little information that makes so much return's lol
Well if U go and choose Akwa Ibom because you decide so shi shi u no go drop no wahala prepared 30k for transportation when you needed for capturing don't stress them abeg

For those who appreciate hardwork and consistency and will to pay for good information when they see one that will help then u no get problem because...........

frozen70:

Is such factory fitted exempted

Just uploaded images as proof

UPDATE: 22 Things I’ve Learned So Far (2025 Edition)

Since I first made this post, a lot has changed.
I’ve worked with more people, faced new issues, and even started getting permit requests from those outside my usual zone.

I decided to document everything — properly.
Not just the steps, but the deep stuff no one really talks about.

Here’s what the full breakdown now looks like:

🛠 UPDATE – If your application is stuck on "Pending" for too long…

Here’s what I’ve found after helping multiple people with this:

💡 Trick 1 – Reregistration (with same details):
If your dashboard doesn’t move for weeks, try reapplying from scratch using the same email/phone. It often resets things and lets the system process you faster. Just avoid typos.

⚡ Trick 2 – Use an alternate processing state:
Some states are faster with approval than others. Lagos, Abuja, and Rivers are often overloaded. If you choose a quieter state (like Ekiti or Gombe), you might bypass the queue entirely. Still legal — and still issued under NPF.

📬 Bonus tip – Track your status:
Check your email for any capture appointment message. If you missed the first one, you can still go directly with your reference code. No need to start from scratch.

Let me know if you want me to post a simple "how to reset pending dashboard" checklist. Happy to help — no sales talk needed.

✌️ Stay safe on the road.

femi20:
Pls where is the ikeja bio metric located

the Ikeja biometrics dey for that main police command complex near Gospel Water side, by Amodu Ojikutu Road in Ikeja. If you ever dey Opebi or Allen, just follow the road down toward the police station — na there they dey do capturing for Ikeja folks.

Some people even dey park for Ikeja Shopping Mall direction and waka inside the compound. Just make sure you go by midday to avoid long queue.

femi20:
Pls how can I message you or your w a s a p. I have made payment for two weeks and is still showing pending. Have been waiting since then for capturing. Again I want to ask do U need medical report for factory fitted or the medical report is meant for lylon tinnted

Hello boss,

Sorry to hear you’ve been waiting that long. Just to clarify — I’m not part of the Police or the official portal. What I offer is a detailed InfoGuide (PDF) that shows you step-by-step how to do your tinted permit registration the right way, fix “pending” issues, and speed up capturing without stress.

To answer your question:

> Do you need a medical report for factory-fitted or just for nylon tinted?



✅ Yes, a medical report is required either way. Whether it’s nylon tinted or factory-fitted, the police system treats both the same — you still need a health-based reason (e.g. eye issues, migraines, etc.) to get approved.

If you need help sorting out your application or want access to the full guide (plus real tips that work), feel free to message me contact below or check signature
Wishing you a quick resolution either way.

Nemesisobaara:
I got a text today. I've been asked to go to Alagbon for the biometrics. Please can I go to the ikeja own instead of Alagbon that is far from me? Also, must I go with my car?

Alagbon no near at all.

From what I know, once they assign a location (like Alagbon), na there dem expect you go do the biometrics. It’s usually tied to your registration — so showing up in a different place (like Ikeja) might not work unless you get clearance from their end. You fit try call the contact number wey dem send with the SMS and ask if it can be changed.

As for the car — you no must carry am go. Dem no dey inspect car for that stage. Na mostly fingerprint and maybe picture/ID. But if your tint strong like black shade, some people dey carry car just in case. No be by force though.

Hope this helps 🙏

thanks to everyone who read, liked, and messaged me.

Funny thing? I almost didn't post it. But the truth is, I’ve been deep in this tint permit palava for months now — from figuring out the NPF portal wahala, to helping a few close clients beat the “pending” trap, down to actually completing permits without physical appearance.

What I shared in the first post is just a slice.

I’ve compiled the full A–Z, plus:

🔐 The cheat codes that make your application harder to reject

✅ Examples of properly written “supporting documents” for factory tints

📸 How to scan documents that pass their backend AI filter

💼 The actual states that approve faster than Lagos

🔄 What to do when yours is stuck in 2023 or rejected

📎 Sample screenshots + real templates


All in a compact guide that you can read and use straight from your phone.

If you’re tired of guesswork or just want peace of mind before the next police checkpoint, I got you.

Many people believe that to get a police escort in Nigeria, you must “know someone inside” or go through backdoors.

But that’s no longer true.

There’s now an official way to request police VIP escort or armed protection — especially if you're:

Attending or hosting a high-profile event

Travelling with sensitive items (cash, tech, valuables)

Feeling unsafe due to personal threats

Moving across risky states

A businessperson who has received threatening calls or attacks



---

🛡️ How To Request Escort (Legally):

1. Go to the official Nigeria Police portal:
👉 https://www.npf.gov.ng


2. Click on “Apply for Escort Services”


3. Fill the form:

Full name

Event or movement type

Date and state

Reason for needing escort

Upload a valid ID or support letter (e.g. invitation, business letterhead)



4. Submit the form.



After submitting, you’ll be contacted by a police rep who will:

Assign escort officers (if approved)

Share payment structure (based on distance and officers needed)

And finalize logistics



---

🚨 A Few Things To Know:

It’s not free — fees depend on number of officers & distance

It’s better to apply early (3–7 days ahead)

Your reason must be clear (no vague “just for cruise” type of reasons)

You don’t need to beg or bribe anyone — it’s now structured and digital



---

In a country where security is becoming unpredictable, this is one of the rare legal tools everyday Nigerians can use — and it works.

Just thought I should share for anyone who has a wedding, travel, or cash movement coming up.

Stay safe, Naija 🙏
