Changing your photo on the photocard driving licence
Your photocard driving licence is valid for a maximum of 10 years, to ensure that your photograph is kept up to date with your true likeness. The DVLA will issue you with a reminder when your photocard driving licence is due for renewal.


However, if during a 10 year period you want to change your photograph you must complete the application form D1 that is available from the DVLA form ordering service and Post Office® branches. Your new photograph that will be put on your licence must be a:

colour passport size, (size of image 45mm x 35mm); ( black and white photographs and those not in the above format will not be accepted)
a true likeness, showing the full face (head and shoulders), with no hat, helmet or sunglasses
signed on the back by the person who has completed section seven of the D1 application

Nice one, bit helpful today aint you ;)

DVLA aim to deliver your driving licence to you within three weeks of receiving your application. It might take longer if we have to check on your health or personal details. Please allow at least three weeks for your licence to arrive before contacting DVLA.

Bugger, need it for ID
