how to renew driving licence

You can renew your driving licence either online through the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways' Parivahan Sewa portal or offline by visiting your local Regional Transport Office (RTO). The online process is often preferred for convenience. The general steps for online renewal include:

• Visit the Parivahan Sewa website and select "Apply for DL Renewal."
• Fill out the application, providing your DL details and required documents like Form 9.
• For applicants over 40, a medical certificate (Form 1A) is mandatory.
• Pay the prescribed renewal fee and print the receipt.

Timely renewal is important, as a grace period of 30 days is available from the expiry date without incurring a late fee.
