Driving Licence- photos

polydactyl

Just realised my licence expired yesterday. Printed off all the forms but it still says I need two passport photos with the application. I thought with the new one you had to have these done at the office.

Does anyone know if I still need these and can I just post the application or do I have to go to the office. Also previous licence issued in Monaghan but now live in Dublin so assume I can get new licence here in Dublin.

Any answers appreciated

The designated photo shops don't come into effect until October (another scam), in the meantime ones from the chemist/photobooth will do.
The licence will have whatever address you give on the form.

Thank you!

I was just in the chemist to get photographs to renew my driving licence, they said they could no longer do it as theirs is no longer acceptable? How did you get on and is October the timeframe?

thanks

Just go and ask for passport size photo, you don't have to tell them what it is for. I have done it recently and worked fine.

October is when the new company starts with the contract.

I really think this designated photoshop thing is a scam, probaby run by some political crony. You can get your buspass ID card with photo proccessed on the spot, the DSW can use the photo stored by the Passport office for your social services card. So what's the need for the photoshops.
