The Nigeria Police Force has explained that increased compliance is the reason for the deadline extension for the enforcement of the Tinted Glass Permit requirement for vehicles with tinted windows.

The police extended that deadline for enforcement to October 2, from August 12, 2025.

Force Public Relations Officer Muyiwa Adejobi disclosed this in a statement on Monday.

He stressed that increased applications by vehicle owners showed heightened public compliance.

“This decision follows a significant increase in applications via the official platform, showing heightened public compliance,” he stated.

He added that, “The extra time will allow thorough scrutiny of each application to ensure permits go only to qualified individuals, in line with national security considerations.”
