Author: Myra Cecilia Azzopardi

No there is not a maximum age limit for holding a licence.

Permits wit categories B, A! and A2 should be renewed every ten years. On reaching 65 years of age, the licence should be renewed every five years. Those with illness that may affect driving can have this limit reduced.

Licences with these categories and profession drivers with: BTP, C1, C1 + E, C, C + E, D1, D1 + E, D y D + E have an expiry date of 5 years and for those 65 years of age or more, must renew every three years.
