To continue driving when your **driving license expires**, it is necessary to **apply for an extension** and submit the required documentation. This must be done before the license expires. It is not necessary to retake the theoretical or practical exams, as these are only required in specific situations, such as when all points on the license are lost due to infractions. In that case, after a waiting period, a course and an exam must be taken to recover the license. However, for a simple renewal due to expiration, you only need to manage the extension.
