To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to make driving licence renewal forms available by post to vulnerable people during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The DVLA sends a renewal application form to all drivers who are aged 70 or over 90 days before their licence is due to expire. The DVLA also sends renewal reminders to drivers who need to renew their photocard licence 56 days before it expires. These reminders can be used to renew a licence online or at a post office.
Drivers can request the relevant application form from the DVLA’s contact centre or a post office that offers a driver licensing service, if they would prefer to make a postal application.
