If you are looking to renew your driving licence in South Africa, then the PDP is one of the best options available. This licence allows you to drive a commercial vehicle for as long as you want without having to worry about renewing it. However, you must know how much it cost and when you have to pay for it if you’re going to get your hands on this type of license card.
The PDP is a lifelong license and, therefore, not renewable. You must renew your driving licence card every 5 years.
How long do you have to renew your driving license card?
You must renew your driving license card every 5 years. You can renew it online or at a DVMV office. Ensure you bring proof of identity with you when you go to the DVMV office, such as your ID book or passport.
What is the process of renewing my driver’s license?

Conclusion
While the PDP can be renewed, you should always keep it in mind that this is a permanent license. Therefore, you need to ensure that you are renewing your PDP at least 5 years before it expires so that it does not become invalid in terms of the law.
