New driving license rules
There have always been many complaints about the validity period of the CNH, which until the change in the CTB was five years. However, the new legislation approved twice as long for drivers, and now there are ten years of validity for the license. This new regulation is already valid from 2022, including for new drivers who recently completed the license.
However, it is necessary to observe the rules regarding the age of the driver. This is because drivers between 50 and 70 years of age will have a shorter five-year renewal period. Drivers over 70 will have three years to complete new documentation. However, in general, a large portion of Brazilian drivers will enjoy more time to pay for a new license.
Detran helps you remember the deadline
For those forgotten who always miss the renewal deadline, the government has also prepared an action to help. In this case, the CTB update also defined that the Detran will send a notification message to all drivers when the deadline approaches.
This ensures that drivers are able to meet the requirement and avoid fines and interest. After all, there is a high chance that after ten years someone will end up forgetting their obligation to the DMV. In addition, prices, requirements to qualify and registration methods remain the same.
