An applicant for a driving licence must provide evidence of normal residence. A certificate of registration such as the Garda National Immigration Bureau (GNIB) card fulfils this requirement. A person who has applied for a GNIB card may not make a driving licence application until the GNIB card is received.

An Irish driving licence can be renewed up to 10 years after its date of expiry.
