I currently live in a rental property, my ID card will expire in about one month’s time. I would like to renew it when that happens but at the same time I am expected to re-locate to a new address in the New Year. Should wait until I am at my new address to renew my ID card?

We advise that you renew your ID card before the expiration date, the EBC requires that all ID cards be renewed at least two (2) before their expiration date. In addition,   we also recommend that when you have re-located to your new address and have resided there for at least two (2) months that you return to the Registration Area Office and inform them about your change of address. Thereafter, steps will be taken to have your registration records updated.
