Bruneian Driver's License Photo

Updating the Photograph When Renewing a Brunei Driving Licence

A driving-licence renewal in Brunei can also be the moment to update an old portrait. The Land Transport Department’s driving guide explains that a person changing their photograph has the picture taken before submitting the renewal paperwork and payment. This connects the new image directly to the licence record rather than treating it as an unrelated passport-photo order.

The department now also provides renewal through e-Darussalam and the TransportBN application. Its online guidance describes identity-card verification when activating an account and access to the digital licence through TransportBN. A convenient renewal channel and a request to change the photograph are related questions, but the authority should confirm how both are handled in your case.

Bring the requested identity documents, including the identification card required for the relevant service. Before a new portrait is captured, review practical advice on facial expression and framing. Good photo quality and a recognizable likeness matter when the licence is compared with its holder during use, particularly if the earlier image no longer reflects your appearance.

Ask the Land Transport Department whether attendance is needed for your photo update before preparing separate prints or a digital photograph. Our photo requirements guidance helps explain the photographic result, while the licensing service determines how that result enters its system. Keep your application reference and current licence available when following up on renewal, collection or a requested change to the record.
