Hi all

 

I had the 2 year driver lisesnce (or however long the first one is) and it expired end of last year but the DLT told me I had 12 months to renew it.  I've now lost the drivers lisence.

 

If I go to the police station to declare it lost, can I still renew the driver lisence for the 5 year version?

Yes, before the one year expiry passes.

You don’t have much time left. If it expired before the 26th of December last year, then it’s too late.

So even a 2 years license can be renewed up to 1 year after the expiration date? Some one told me only 5 year license can do that and 2 year have to be renewed before the expiration date.

Good news.

I'm not actually sure... BUT, its a fairly moot point as the Op has to go to the DLT with the same documents anyway. 

 

BUT... (depending on the DLT) the Op may not need a Police Report to replace his existing (expired license), that said, as the license is lost and expired, he may just be told to start again... 

 

If the Op has a Photo of his expired driving license, that may help things.

 

Worst case scenario - he comes out with another 2 year license, so its not a big deal either way.

Not to be rude or anything, but I would like to have an answer to my question. And I guess I can always start a new tread but why not try to get the answer here without starting a new one? A lot of knowable people her, so why not?

Yes that is correct.  A 2 year license has up to 1 year after the expiration date for renewal in order to be eligible for a 5 year lisence.

Police reports are no longer required when you lose the license.
