Good news! The Department of Trade and Industry announces that motorcycle drivers who owned an old or previously purchased motorcycle protective helmet can secure the required ICC or PS stickers to avoid apprehension starting August 1, 2012.
Bad news! For now, motorcycle owners/drivers have to wait for the announcement from DTI when the stickers shall be available for distribution, says DTI Regional Director Asteria Caberte during the DyAB Traffic Summit early today.
The stickers are available at P1.25 only but the motorcycle drivers have to pay the processing fee of P100 upon securing the sticker at the DTI. Caberte warned motorists of the scam selling fake ICC and PS stickers as their agency is filing charges against an individual who was caught selling it.
The ICC (Import Compliance Certificate) sticker is issued to all imported helmet while the PS (Product Standard) sticker is issued to all locally-manufactured helmet.
Most of the available motorcycle protective helmet in the market is imported. Though, according to Director Caberte there are already local manufacturers that passed the standard requirements.
The DTI has listed 49 brands of approved motorcycle helmet. The most popular brand is “Index“. Here’s the partial list of the brands of helmet issued with the ICC Â mark:
- 2 Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 14. GPX Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 27. MRC Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 39. STUDSS

Hindi naman binebenta ang sticker. Dala yon sa helmet when you purchased it. At saka, ang importante ang brand na kasali sa list of acceptable helmet.

Thank you sir sa quick reply. Sir ung helmet ko wala sa list sa latest post mo, pero may “SNELL APPROVED” and “DOT” sticker. Pero kanina lang sinita ako dito sa Baguio, ung icc talaga hinanap, nakipagtalo ako and pinakita ko snell and dot stickers, pero ayaw pa din. I explained na kung ung helmet ko okay sa U.S. bakit dito hindi. I didnt back down until pinaalis ako saying na first and last warning ko na daw, Wag ko na daw gagamitin! hehe

If the helmet bears the BPS sticker, it means the helmet is locally-manufactured and has passed the Philippine Standards. So, okay yan.
