If your driver’s license is already expired, you will need to provide proof of legal entitlement to be in Canada (Canadian birth certificate, passport, etc.) as well as proof of your residency in Alberta (Utility bills, residential lease agreement, etc.). Refer to this page for more information.

If it expired more than 3 years ago, you will need to pass the written and road tests before a new driver’s licence will be issued.

Class 3, 5, 6, and 7 driver’s licenses are eligible for online renewal. The online service is available only if your driver’s license is not expired and you are renewing it without any changes. If your licence is expired or you need to update your license (e.g., a name or address change), you must renew it in person.
