Renewal of expired driving licenses (SIM/Surat Ijin Mengemudi) can be done starting Wednesday (13/3/2024). The expired driver's license extension service is related to the National Holiday (Nyepi Day 2024). But not all expired SIMs can renew on Wednesday. Only SIMs that expire during national holidays can be extended.[1]

A dead driving license (SIM) has actually expired so if the validity period has passed, the owner must issue a new SIM with a re-examination. SIM owners who are late in renewing their license by even one day are required to renew it using a new SIM issuance mechanism. This is stated in Police Regulation number 5 of 2021 concerning the Issuance and Marking of Driving Licenses article 4.[2]

To extend a driver's license, there are several requirements that the applicant must fulfill. The details are as follows:[3]

1. Previous SIM card;

2. Resident Identity Card (KTP);

3. Physical health examination results;

4. Psychological test results;

5. A photo with a blue background, not a selfie;

6. Photo of the signature on plain white paper with thick ink.
