Nigerian Police take stand on vehicle tinted glass permit

News Update

THE Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has announced the resumption of enforcement of the Tinted Glass Permit policy, citing growing security concerns nationwide.

The announcement was contained in a statement issued on Monday by the Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Benjamin Hundeyin.

The police said enforcement will resume on January 2, 2026, pending the final determination of a related matter currently before the court.

The NPF clarified that no court order ever restrained it from enforcing the law on the use of tinted glass on vehicles.

It explained that enforcement was earlier suspended to allow motorists adequate time to regularise their documents without pressure.

According to the police, recent security assessments show a rise in crimes carried out using vehicles with unauthorised tinted glass.

He said the Force remains committed to protecting citizens’ rights while ensuring public safety and security.
