If your driving license has been lost or destroyed, for example due to theft, illegibility or loss, you will need a new driving license unless you waive your right to drive.

If you do not report the loss of your driving license immediately and apply for a replacement document, you are committing an administrative offence.

The replacement driving license must be applied for at your local driving license authority.

Note: You will also receive a temporary card driver's license to replace a paper driver's license. Old pink or gray paper driving licenses are no longer issued.
