You can apply to have your driving licence corrected online. This service, available in all départements, allows you to apply for a correction to your driving licence.

 

All elements of the application are transmitted electronically. To access this online service, you need to have an ANTS account.

 

In step 1: Selecting the reason, choose "I would like to report an error on my driving licence received less than 6 months ago".

 

You must then enter the licence number and indicate the error found.

 

This online procedure can only be accessed from the user account. Driving schools are not authorised to carry out this procedure.

The online procedure is designed to enable you to have your document reprinted if you discover an error when you receive it.

 

This error may be:

  • a spelling mistake or typo in your vital records
  • a category added incorrectly or left off
  • an error in the validity date of the new document
  • a restriction (automatic transmission) or additional right (heavy trailer) that was left off

The photo and signature will be taken from the initial online procedure and cannot be changed.

 

Only documents printed via an online request can be corrected. If you have an old document that is incorrect, you must use the online procedure to request that it be reprinted if it has been damaged.

However, this procedure does not apply if you have:

  • received a document that is not yours
  • moved to another département since your initial application
  • made an initial application to exchange a foreign licence
  • applied for an International Driving Permit
  • received your document more than 6 months ago
  • a driving licence in the old format (not the "credit-card-sized" format).
