Driver’s license renewal is now completed online through the ANTS website.
Some driving schools or specialized service agencies can also assist with the process. They may help with taking the required photo and submitting documents, making the procedure easier for some applicants.
How Much Does Renewal Cost?
In many cases, the renewal itself is free. However, there may be additional costs for services such as photos or administrative assistance.
Typically, the total expense ranges between €25 and €50, depending on the services used.
Can You Still Drive After Age 80?
Yes, absolutely. There is no legal age limit for driving. As long as you remain healthy and capable of driving safely, you can continue to drive.
Even after age 80, the renewal schedule does not change for a Category B license unless medical conditions require more frequent checks.
