• You will need to reapply for an EDL each time you apply for a different class of driver's license.
• If your current license expires within six months and you upgrade to an EDL, your new EDL will be valid for five years.
• If your current license expires more than six months from now, you can still upgrade to an EDL. However, if you do, your new EDL will have the same expiry date as your current license. For example, if your license expires in two years and you upgrade to an EDL now, the new EDL will still expire in two years. When it expires, youll have to reapply and pay the drivers license and EDL renewal fees again.

A list which displays the kind of information which is required to complete the procedure.
e.g.
1. Date of Birth.
2. City or County of Birth.

You can upgrade from a regular drivers license to an enhanced drivers license (EDL) any time.
