Renewing your Nova Scotia Driver's Licence

Your Nova Scotia Driver's Licence (excluding the Learner's Licence) is valid for a period of up to five years, and expires on your birthday. The Service Nova Scotia and Municipal Relations will send out a renewal notice before it expires. However, if you do not receive a renewal notice for any reason, as a licence holder you are responsible to ensure that your licence is valid and has not expired.

Be sure to let the Department know within 30 days of changing your address - use our online service to send us your changes in address. At any point during the last 6 months before it expires, you can renew your Driver's Licence.
