Driving licence renewal in Antigua & Barbuda
How to renew a driving licence — how it works anywhere
Renewing a driving licence in Antigua and Barbuda involves visiting the Antigua and Barbuda Transport Board to submit an application and provide updated personal information. The process typically includes a vision test and the issuance of a new photo-bearing licence card.
It is generally advised to begin the renewal process at least two to four weeks before the current licence expires. This accounts for potential peak periods at the transport office and allows time to resolve any administrative requirements.
