What should you do if you do not receive a renewal notice for your license?

Sending in an application for renewal is the most proactive approach if a renewal notice for your license is not received. It's important to understand that while receiving a renewal notice is a helpful reminder, the responsibility ultimately rests with the individual to ensure their licensing is up to date. If you do not receive a notice, it does not absolve you of the obligation to renew your license before its expiration.

Submitting a renewal application ensures that you maintain your legal driving privileges and can prevent any potential lapses in your license status. This action shows that you are taking responsibility for your driving privilege, which is essential for compliance with driving regulations.

While contacting the licensing authority may be helpful for clarification or confirmation of your status, it may not directly address the need for timely renewal. Ignoring the expiration date can lead to penalties, fines, or legal issues, and renewing without an application is typically not permissible as the formal process usually requires submission. Therefore, sending in an application is the appropriate and responsible step to take in this situation.
