Driving License Renewal Meghalaya

In Meghalaya (and across India), a private driver's licence remains valid for 20 years from the date of issuance or until the driver is 40, whichever comes first. It can be renewed or issued for a further 10 years once the driver turns 40, and then for an additional 5 years.

• In other words, the validity for driver licence renewals for private vehicle owners will be:

• If you are between 30 to 50 years old at the time of your licence renewal, your licence validity period would be 10 years

• If you are between 50-55 years old at the time of your licence renewal, your licence validity will last until you reach the age of 60 years.
