Frequently Asked Questions: Driving Licence & Transport Services

1. Can I appear for a Learner's Licence test from home in India?
Yes, in most Indian states and Union Territories implementing faceless RTO services, applicants with Aadhaar authentication can complete the LL knowledge test online from home using a desktop/laptop equipped with a webcam. If you do not opt for Aadhaar authentication, you must visit the designated RTO.
2. What is the grace period for driving licence renewal in India?
Under the Motor Vehicles (Amendment) Act 2019, you can renew your driving licence from one year before expiry up to one year after expiry. If renewed within this period, it is effective from the date of expiry. If you apply after one year of expiry, you must retake the driving test.
