Q: When can I apply for my Driving License renewal?

A: You can apply for renewal one year before the expiry date. If your license has already expired, you have a grace period of 30 days to drive without a fine, but you should renew it immediately.

A: If your license has been expired for more than 1 year, the RTO rules mandate that you must take the driving test (Learner's and Practical) again. At Phoenix Pro, we assist with the re-test process, including providing the car and slot booking.

A: Form 1A is a Medical Certificate signed by a registered medical practitioner. It is mandatory if you are over the age of 40 or if you are applying for a transport vehicle license renewal.

A: Yes. If you have moved to Bangalore, you can apply for a "Change of Address" and "Renewal of DL" together. You will need valid address proof (like a rental agreement or Aadhaar) for your current Bangalore residence.

A: In most cases for standard renewal, the process is contactless (online). However, if your previous license was a paper booklet or an older chip-less card, you may need to visit the RTO for biometric data capture (photo and signature).

A: For a standard Non-Transport (Private Car/Bike) license:

  • If you are under 30: Valid until age 40.
  • If you are 30-50: Valid for 10 years.
