Driver’s Licence Application : Acceptable Identification Documents
GNB Validation – NB Driver Licence/Photo ID Card
Effective immediately, anyone going from an NB driver’s licence to an ID card or vice versa is not required to provide CDLA identification documents.  Exceptions to this are:
  • if they have been expired for more than 5 years
  • or if they are only GNB validated and are exchanging from out of province, they will be required to show CDLA approved documents.
If a client’s address has changed, they will be required to provide proof of residency documents.  The system has been updated to allow the switch between an NB Driver’s Licence and an ID card without requiring that the client be CDLA validated.
​
