Offices for renewing a driving licence in the Netherlands

Online renewal depends on the municipality you are registered in

Renewals and replacements are handled by your own municipality. Online renewal, booking a visit to apply, the photo you need and the way you collect the new licence can all differ from one municipality to the next.

    For a counter application bring your old licence, a compliant photo and payment; if the licence has expired, bring another valid identity document too. Card is preferred, though cash is accepted. An ordinary printed photo is not sufficient for RDW (Dutch vehicle and driving licence authority) online renewal: use an approved digital-photo service. Do not assume renewal preserves the old expiry date or always gives ten years; age, medical conditions and categories affect validity. If you renew online through RDW, keep the application code sent by email or SMS after an approved photographer or photo booth submits your digital photo and signature. The code is valid for six months and is required to apply. DigiD (the Dutch digital ID for government websites) login using SMS verification alone is not sufficient.
