Need to renew your driver's licence?
🚗🚙🚘💨You will need to renew your driver licence when you turn 75, 80, and every two years after that.
NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi will send you a driver licence renewal pack about eight weeks before your licence is due to expire.
You can also apply up to 6 months before you turn 75 by downloading the form yourself or requesting one from a driver licencing agent near you:
As part of the renewal, you will need to:
👉🏻get a medical check by your doctor showing that you are medically fit to drive and
👉🏻 you may also have to do an on-road safety test (this depends on what your medical check results are).
Once your medical check certificate states that you are fit to drive, and you have done an on-road test if required, you can complete the application form and visit a driver licensing agent to apply in person. When you apply, your medical check results must not be older than 60 days.
