Generally required documents
For renewal, the following may be required:
- valid identity document;
- health card;
- expiring or expired license;
- recent photograph, if requested by the facility;
- additional medical documentation in case of particular pathologies.
Many procedures are now managed directly by the facility carrying out the visit.
Where can you renew your driving license?
Renewal can be done at:
- ASL;
- authorized medical practices;
- driving schools;
- authorized automotive registration agencies.
Many facilities offer a comprehensive service that includes a medical examination, photography, and electronic submission of the application.
How much does the renewal cost?
The cost may vary depending on the structure chosen and the services included.
It generally includes:
- medical visit;
- administrative rights provided for by the legislation;
- any costs for managing the practice.
For this reason, the final price may differ significantly from one property to another.
Can you drive after 80?
Yes. In Italy there is no maximum age limit for holding a category B driving license.
Even after the age of 80, it is possible to continue driving, provided the driver passes the medical examination and is deemed fit to drive.
The aim of periodic checks is to ensure the safety of both the driver and other road users.
In summary
- Up to 50 years: renewal every 10 years.
- From 50 to 70 years: renewal every 5 years.
- From 70 to 80 years: renewal every 3 years.
- Over 80 years: renewal every 2 years.
Age alone does not prevent you from driving: what matters is maintaining the physical and mental health requirements required by law.
