    Hi, my drivers license is getting a bit tattered and it actually looks like its a fake. Im not in ireland at the moment, so i cant drop it in myself. Would i be able to get a new one done up if i got someone to call into the office with a passport photo of me?

    no because the form (you can get it in the garda station or the tax office) needs your signature, also 2 passport pictures with your signature on the back are required and you must give in the old licence with your application!!!

    As above. Form needs to be witnessed by a Garda. And you will 71 in the respective restrictions box which denotes replaced/duplicate license :)

    No need for a Garda to sign a form, only need that if it's lost/stolen. OP No issues with getting a duplicate licence, I think they make like they do to force people to renew early. Only issue is you need to send off the old one and I don't know which country you're in, but very few look kindly to driving without carrying your licence
