sanook 1 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 2 year temporary driving licence is about to expire/time to renew to 5 years validity. I heard that by doing it after my birthday(instead of before) will give me almost 6 years? Can someone confirm true or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henk Langeweg Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 How long can you let your 1st 2 year DL expire? Expire date and Birthdate differs 3 months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expire date and Birthdate differs 3 months. 1 year, according to the motor office. However, I am not sure the insurance will cover in that period. ** I have sort of the opposite problem. Last year I got a two year license because I was on a tourist visa. Now I am on a proper visa and should be able to get a five year licence - but how long before the expiration date can I apply for a new licence? I still got +1 year on the licence. ** Sorry, didn't realize that you asked about the 1st 2 year licence. My answer is for a 5 year licence. I am not sure it is the same for a 2 year licence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
