Why your (old) “pink” driving license will soon no longer be valid

2023-08-06 08:47:36

The famous pink cardboard paper on which we generally keep an advantageous photo taken in our youth will soon be a collector’s item!

The traditional format of the driving license which was previously valid for an unlimited period is indeed set to disappear from the portfolio of the French.

Since 2013, all the Member States of the European Community have adopted a more secure bank card format, valid for 15 years.

Until now, the two versions therefore coexisted without concern… but this is only transitory. The legislator has indeed set the end of validity of the pink paper on January 19, 2033.

If your right to drive will obviously not be called into question, it will therefore be necessary to replace this title when the time comes.

For the time being, however, no details have been given on the date from which this change can take place.

So there’s no need to rush to the official portal of theNational Agency for Secured Titles (ANTS). Until further notice, you can only request a new driving license in the event of damage, loss or theft.
