Irish driving licence law is based on a framework of EU law. The current extensions to the validity of driving licences were granted under EU Regulation 2021/267. The Regulation applied to driving licences with expiry dates up to 30 June 2021. Ireland subsequently received authorisation from the EU under Commission Decision 2021/1362 to extend this applicable period to cover licences that will expire up to 31 October 2021. It is not possible to extend individual licences.
