Initial Registration
Under the Department of Transportation and Communication’s (DOTC) Administrative Order No. 010-2005, all brand new motor vehicles are required to have an initial registration which shall be valid and effective for three (3) years from its registration. Such initial registration shall require the Certificate of Conformity (COC), issued by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), and the Compulsory Third Party Liability insurance policy valid for three (3) years. The rates of the MVUC as set forth and imposed under RA 8794 shall be collected from the owner of the covered motor vehicles for the registration of the said units.
Anti-Overloading Act
There are laws and memorandums which regulating overloading of trucks and trailers. It's based on the GVW and violation penalty is 25% of MVUC. 5% overloading is tolerated.
Notes: I can't find anti-overloading law on private passenger cars but there is a penalty on overloading passenger more than regular based on MMDA website.
