Overview
What is Driver Licence Renewal?
A Nigerian driver’s licence is issued for three or five years. Capture needs one in-person visit to an FRSC capture centre for your photo and fingerprints, and a temporary licence is issued right after it.
Docufy handles everything around that visit. You fill the form, upload your old licence, NIN slip and passport photo, and pay online. A vetted partner firm books your capture and submits the application, and you follow every step on your phone. The plastic card usually takes about 30 days.
Who needs this
Anyone whose driver’s licence has expired or is close to expiring. You can also apply for your first licence here, with the certificate from your accredited driving school.

Questions
Things people ask about driver licence renewal.
Do I need to go anywhere to renew?
Yes, once. Capture needs your photo and fingerprints, taken in person at an FRSC capture centre. Everything else happens on your phone. If you already hold a licence, you can choose not to be captured again and use a valid invoice while you wait for the plastic card.
Do I need to take the road test again to renew?
No. Renewal is a biometric capture and a document check. A first licence needs the certificate from an accredited driving school instead.
Can I renew before my licence expires?
Yes. Renewing a few weeks before it expires means you are not left driving on an expired licence while the renewal goes through.
How long does it take?
A temporary licence is issued right after your biometric capture. The plastic card usually takes about 30 days. The FRSC sets the final pace, and you can follow every step on your phone.
