How to renew your taxi driver’s licence

When can I renew?

A licence can be renewed in the month before the expiry date and 30 days after expiry. For example, if the expiry date is April 28, the first day of renewal is March 1 and last day is May 28. However, if your licence is expired you may not drive a taxi or limousine during this period. It is an offence to drive a taxi and/or limousine with an expired taxi driver’s licence.

If a taxi driver’s licence is not renewed within 30 days of its expiry date, the licence is deemed abandoned and the licence file is closed.

Licence renewal requirements

To renew your taxi driver’s licence, you must attend the Vehicle for Hire office. To complete the renewal you will need the following:

  • A valid class 1, 2 or 4 Alberta driver’s licence (with current address)
  • A Police Information Check dated within 60 days and completed for TNDL purpose. To obtain the police check, you may attend in person at any Calgary Police district office or office or apply online (ePIC). If you live outside Calgary, you must attend your local police jurisdiction to complete the check.

Once all requirements are met, a new photograph may be taken and a new taxi driver’s licence will be issued.

  • Licence renewal fee: $135
  • Replacement ID badge (lost, damaged, stolen): $50

Non-refundable payments are required for police check and licence.
