is
over,
the
Driver

Agency
(DVLA),
will
automatically
send
to
you
the
necessary
application
forms
to
re-apply
for
the
return
of
your
driving
licence.
This
will
also
remove
any
expired
endorsements
that
have
been
on
your
licence.
Applying
for
your
driving
licence
after
your
disqualification
has
ended
If
you

you
will
be

period
of

ends.

complete
these

If,
however, your name has changed since your last licence
was issued you must complete the D1 application form
(available from most Post OfficeŽ branches), along
with the D27. You must also enclose original documentation
confirming your change of name and the appropriate
fee. There is no need to supply a new photograph.
What
to do if your forms are not received
If,
for any reason, you do not receive the reminder application
forms to apply for your driving licence, you can use
the D1 application form, which is available from DVLA
form ordering service, and Post OfficeŽ branches.
Where to send your completed application forms
Send
your completed application with your paper driving licence
or photocard driving licence with the D740 paper counterpart
to DVLA, Swansea SA99 1AB or you may be able to use the Post
OfficeŽ checking service.
DVLA
aim to deliver your driving licence to you within three weeks
of receiving your application. It might take longer if we
have to check on your health or personal details. You will
need to wait for your new licence to be issued before driving.
Please allow at least three weeks for your licence to arrive
before contacting DVLA.
