    Hi All

    I live in north Dublin and I'd like to get my license renewed. Its a provisional license I got back in 2011 so I reckon it is expired by now. However, I would love to avoid doing the theory again...

    Anywhere I could bring it to have it renewed?

    Welcome to Boards :)

    I've moved your thread to the Learning To Drive forum since your question is about a provisional licence. It's better suited to here than the Dublin County North forum.

    You won't have to do the theory test as long as the licence isn't expired by more than 5 years. If you got it in 2011 you probably would have got a 2 year licence providing it was your first or second licence.

    You probably would have gone to your local motor tax office the last time. The major difference these days is that it's now handled by the NDLS service.

    Would I need a new photograph?

    Not required to bring photos anymore, they are 'taken' at the NDLS centre.......



    To renew a learner permit you must provide

    Application form for learner permit D201 (Fully completed)
    Current/ most recent Learner permit
    Evidence of PPSN if required.
    If you do not have your most recent learner permit you must present a completed lost licence declaration (question 17 on D201) together with valid photographic ID
    If applying for a third or subsequent Learner permit, documentary evidence must be submitted that you have either sat a driving test (statement of driving test outcome dated within two years) or an acknowledgement of a forthcoming test.
    NDLS medical form (dated within 1 month) if required
    Evidence of CPC if required
    If the address has changed since your last learner permit was issued, you must provide evidence of new address.
    Relevant fee €35
    Your Photograph and signature will be captured at the NDLS office.

    They take your photo at the NDLS now, so you don't have to bring passport photos with you.

    I think Dave has covered it all there, but you can also check out the NDLS website here for more info:
