Renew a private hire driver licence

Find out what you need to complete a renewal, how to complete a renewal and what happens after you have submitted your renewal.

Badge renewal type

There are two types of renewal when applying for a licence: a full licence renewal or an extension of a provisional licence (when you have paid in full but issued a shorter term due to requiring a further check mid-licence such as medical was due or DVLA was due to expire etc). If you paid for and were issued the full term of your licence, please read your renewal reminder email to advise what documents are required.

The email contains a unique reference which must be used when received to avoid expiry. The reference allows you to complete the online application form and upload your documents. 

If you paid for your licence in full, but were issued a shorter term due to requiring a further check mid-licence, you will need to apply for an extension of your licence.
