Renew a licence

A licence is valid for 12 months from the date of approval. If you are on GIRO, you can opt for the auto-renewal scheme. Otherwise, you will need to renew your licence manually.

A licence not renewed on time becomes invalid. Once expired, you will need to apply for a new licence before you can continue dealing.

Upon successful renewal, the licence will be valid for 12 months from the last licence expiry date.

How to renew

You may renew your licence automatically via the GIRO auto-renewal scheme.

GIRO deduction is made 30 days before licence expiry. Therefore, ensure you have a sufficient balance in your GIRO account for the deduction. Insufficient funds may lead to an unsuccessful renewal of your licence. An expired licence cannot be renewed and a new application must be submitted.

Note:

If you wish to apply for GIRO, mail the completed GIRO application form227 KB to:
