Where to renew or replace a driving licence in Poland

The licence is issued by the transport department for your address

The licence is replaced by the transport department of the city or county office for your address. Some offices hand out tickets at a dedicated counter, others want a reservation online or by phone, and some start you at an information desk. Medical certificates for time-limited licences are another point where offices go their own way.

    Rynek 1, I piętro, pokój 133, 41-500 Chorzów

    Walk in and take a ticket at the driving licence counter to renew or update your details.

    Prepare form 11, two-sided copy and original licence, ID, payment proof and a 35 × 45 mm photo taken within six months. The checklist includes medical evidence and psychological evidence for specified heavy-vehicle/bus categories or tram permission; confirm which applies to expiry or a data-only change before arranging examinations. A representative needs written authority; the PLN 17 authority-document charge has close-family exemptions. You can also send originals by post or deliver a sealed envelope marked Referat Komunikacji at ground-floor room 2.
