After you reach the age of 70 it is renewed every 2 years I believe.

Hi.  I  think you will find  that its 3 years  for over 70,s

Thanks Leon couldn't remember exact years that's a growing older problem!

Thank you all..!

No its recently changed.  Used to be 3 years for 70+ but has now changed to every 2 years

Thanks Dario

Hi Dario.

When I enquired about a month ago I was told 3 years. And my online enquiry confirmed that ?

N332 just recently published advice direct from DGT - I'll see if I can find it and edit this post.

It used to be every 5 years from 65+, but changed to 5 years 65 - 70, 2 years 70+

EDIT:

Found it.  Extract, then link to follow

The DGT has persistently stated that mobility is important, whatever our age, and so they have no intention to withdraw that luxury, but driving has to be done in the safest way possible.

At the moment, we are all obliged to carry out the psychotechnical examination every 10 years until the age of 65, at which time we must begin to renew it every 5 years. Both those timeframes can be reduced if the doctor feels it necessary.

However, from now on, people who are over 70 years old, they will see an increase in the frequency with which they must renew this permit with the aim of “ensuring that the ability to drive remains intact”. Therefore, those over 65 must renew their driver’s licence every 5 years and, from the age of 70, every two years. Although, like now, it is at the discretion of those responsible for carrying out the psychotechnical test, who can force an annual examination, if appropriate.
