Need to renew your driver's licence?

Hira Siddiqui from Citizens Advice Bureau Pakuranga/Eastern Manukau

๐Ÿš—๐Ÿš™๐Ÿš˜๐Ÿ’จYou 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:
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿปget a medical check by your doctor showing that you are medically fit to drive and
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿป 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.

For more information on renewing your licence, medical checks, licensing agents and what to take with you when you apply, visit: lnkd.in...
