Time to renew driver’s license, stickers and health card

TORONTO – The Ontario government allowed a grace period last year for driver’s licenses, stickers and health card renewals, but that time is reaching an end.

The province announced on Sept. 1 that it is reinstating renewal requirements for driver’s licences, licence plate stickers, Ontario photo cards, Ontario health cards, and other products that would have expired on or after March 1, 2020, but were extended to provide immediate relief to Ontarians during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Those needing to renew their provincial documents are encouraged to use ServiceOntario’s online option.

The deadline for renewal is Feb. 28, 2022.

Deadline for heavy commercial vehicle owners is Dec. 31; for novice licence holders (class G1, G2, M1 or M2) it’s Dec. 31, 2022.

Eligible drivers can renew their driver’s licence online at ServiceOntario.ca, including those aged 80 and over.
