flag UK drivers who passed before 2014 may have expired photocard licences and must renew to avoid fines or vehicle seizure.

flag Drivers who passed their test before 2014 may have expired photocard licences, as renewals are required every 10 years under the Road Traffic Act 1988. flag Failure to renew can result in a £1,000 fine, vehicle seizure, and loss of legal ID during police stops. flag The expiry date is listed in section 4b on the front of the card. flag Renewal via GOV.UK costs £14 and takes about five days, while postal and Post Office options cost £17 and £21.50 respectively. flag Experts recommend avoiding third-party sites that charge extra fees. flag The government has not mandated an eye test during renewal, but safety advocates suggest it. flag Those who no longer drive should return their licence to the DVLA.
