PCO Licence Renewal
The PCO License has a validity period of three years, and every three years, you will have the opportunity to apply for its renewal. To continue working as a Licensed Private Hire or Chauffeur Driver in London, it’s essential to ensure your renewal is submitted punctually. Fortunately, Transport for London (TfL) will dispatch your renewal forms ahead of your current license’s expiration date, simplifying the process for you. However, it’s worth noting that there have been instances where TfL’s renewal forms were not delivered on time.
Nonetheless, it is ultimately your responsibility to guarantee the timely renewal of your PCO License, and it’s unwise to solely rely on TfL for sending the renewal forms. If your license expires, the responsibility lies with you. It’s advisable to set up a calendar reminder to ensure you meet the renewal deadline.
Don’t leave it too late for your PCO Licence Renewal
Renewal processing can span several weeks, so it’s crucial not to delay, as your PCO License might expire. An expired license not only renders you unlicensed but also invalidates your insurance coverage. To alleviate this concern, we extend a renewal submission service. Simply reach out to us, and we’ll manage your renewal while you continue to earn a livelihood.
If your PCO License’s expiration date is approaching, even if you plan to take a break or travel abroad for an extended period, it’s advisable to opt for renewal. Allowing it to expire or delaying renewal by more than three months from the expiration date necessitates starting afresh, including a complete reapplication with all necessary documents.
Undergoing the entire application process from the beginning can be a cumbersome endeavor. Hence, timely renewal is strongly recommended.
If you require assistance with your PCO License renewal, you can count on us. Just give us a call, and we will thoroughly review your application, ensuring that all the requisite components are submitted to TfL. Our aim is to keep you on the road, earning income to meet your daily expenses.
