GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – The Guyana government says it will treat with the “utmost seriousness” any person, including medical practitioners, who submits false documents in a bid to breach the new tint regulations.
“All fraudulent documents, whether submitted by an applicant or improperly issued by medical practitioners and others, will be treated with the utmost seriousness.
“Motorists with medical conditions are advised to consult registered medical practitioners to determine whether a tint below the legal limit is necessary and to ensure that all supporting documentation submitted is accurate and compliant with the regulations,” the Ministry of Home Affairs said in a statement.
It said that it is investigating the falsification of medical certificates submitted by applicants for tint waivers, reminding the public that a robust verification system is in place to oversee the issuance of tint waivers in accordance with the Tint Regulations, which came into force on January 1, 2026.
“As part of this process, the Ministry will seek to verify the authenticity of all information submitted by applicants,” it warned, reminding that the approved tint levels are 25 percent Visible Light Transmission (VLT) for the front driver and passenger windows and 20 percent for the rear passenger windows and back glass.
“No tint is permitted on the front windscreen, except for a visor measuring six inches from the top,” it added.
Attorney General and Minister of Legal Affairs this week warned motorists who breach the tint regulations that they face a GUY$30,000 (One Guyana dollar=US$0.004 cents) fine.
