Requirements for Renewal of Driving License in Saudi Arabia

Before you proceed with the renewal process, ensure you have met the following requirements:

1. Settle Any Outstanding Traffic Violations: Clear all pending traffic fines before initiating your license renewal.

3. Pay the Applicable Renewal Fees: Submit the required renewal fee to your Iqama Number using an ATM or online banking. The fees are structured as follows: SAR 80 for two years, SAR 200 for five years, and SAR 400 for 10 years.
4. Confirm License Validity of Less Than 180 Days: To be eligible for online renewal, your driving license must have a validity of fewer than 180 days.
