You must complete driving licence application form DL1 (available from most post offices, local vehicle licensing offices or directly from DVLNI by calling 0845 402 4000 and enclose your current driving licence.

If this is your first application to drive these larger vehicles, or you are renewing your licence at age 45 or over, you must get a doctor to fill in a medical report form DLM1 (which is also available from the Driver Vehicle Testing Agency and DVLNI) and ensure that all the relevant questions are completed. Send your completed application to

Driver Licensing Division,

If you have sent us a DLM1 medical report in the last 12 months or you hold a full Vocational EC/EEA licence and are under 45, do not send one now.
