Singapore regulations & registration
LTA Vehicle Classification
LTA vehicle classification segments Singapore-registered vehicles by type — passenger car, taxi, private hire, goods vehicle, motorcycle — each with its own inspection and compliance schedule.
Classifications include private cars, private hire vehicles, taxis, goods vehicles (light commercial vehicles, heavy goods vehicles), buses (private, omni, school), and motorcycles. Each has its own road-tax structure and inspection schedule.
Window tint rules apply uniformly across most categories. Some commercial vehicle classes have additional visibility requirements for safety and identification.
Workshops typically tint a mix of private cars, private hire and luxury vehicles. Commercial vehicles less so — the value-vs-cost calculus is different.
