It only takes a minute! You won’t be able to renew your cover without providing it.

Time is ticking to submit your Driver Number.

Since31 March 2025, under the Road Traffic and Roads Act 2023, every driver in Ireland must provide their Driver Number when taking out or renewing their car insurance.

What to know:

• Your Driver Number (section 4(d) on your licence) is now a legal requirement.
• Insurers can’t issue a policy without it - for all named drivers too.
• It’s verified against the National Driver & Vehicle File and shared with the Irish Motor Insurance Database (IMID).
• Missing or incorrect details could delay or void your renewal.

Helpful tip:

• Save your Driver Number (and any named drivers’) in your phone -  you’ll need them at each renewal to keep your cover valid and compliant.
• It only takes a minute - but keeps you fully covered on the road.
