Deposit for driving license exchange: How to secure your new document!

Fee your driver's license owner! Anyone who received their driver's license before January 19, 2013 must switch to the new, counterfeit-proof EU driver's license by 19 January 2033 at the latest. Currently, this applies in particular to the years from 1971, which have to exchange their old ID cards, be it gray or pink, by January 19, 2025. After this deadline, the old driver's license is invalid - a warning money waves if you use it! For older vintages that missed the deadline, it is said: catch up!

The cumbersome procedure starts at the driver's license office of the Kulmbach district office - an appointment is made and should be made early to avoid stress shortly before the deadline. For the exchange, those affected need their ID card, a current biometric passport photo and the old driver's license. The price for the exchange is 25.30 euros, the processing takes about four weeks. Delays bring unnecessary complications, so: register now! Anyone who misses the deadline entails stricter sanctions at home and abroad. Further information can be found here .
