How To Renew Driver Licence in Bahamas?

A Bahamian driver’s licence allows persons to drive legally on the streets of The Bahamas. Driving without a valid drivers licence is an offence, hence, drivers should always make sure that licences are valid at all times.

Drivers’ licences can be renewed for either one or three years. Persons obtaining a Bahamian drivers licence for the first time, either by way of passing the driving test or transfer can only have their licence for a period of one year, after which, the licence must be renewed.

Process:
** Complete a Client Registration with a Customer Service Representative “CSR” if not already completed.
** Take a photo with a CSR (All persons renewing will need to take a new photo in the first year).
** Inform the CSR whether you are renewing for 1 or 3 years.
** Sign when the CSR asks.
** Pay the cashier and depending on your location, you will receive your driver’s licence or a receipt to return and collect as per “Turn Around Times” outlined below.

Please Note:
Applicant must notify the cashier immediately of any changes to their driver’s licence (i.e. name changes, physical changes, amendments) and must provide all supporting documents (i.e. passport, marriage certificate, divorce document etc.) when changing any information on licence.
