FAQ'S 
Applying for a card
Applying in person and providing additional information
Due to the introduction of more secure technology, you will need to apply
in person at a licence issuing centre to obtain a card. This is so you can have
your photo and signature captured digitally.
Receiving your card
For improved security, you will not receive your card on the spot. Instead,
it will be produced at a secure location and mailed to you within 14 days.
Once your application is approved you will receive an interim Driver Licence
Receipt to show a police officer if requested to do so. This will act as proof
you hold a licence until your card arrives in the mail.
