Applicant's Guide

Changing cards

You may choose to trade in one card for another at any time—the choice is yours, as long as you meet the eligibility requirements. Some charges will apply, and an interview may be necessary.

Trading your EIC for an EDL

Any Manitoba driver who holds an EIC may choose to trade it in for an EDL at any time. This will require an interview and will cost $30. However, this can be done at no additional cost on a one-time only basis as part of your first driver’s licence renewal after January 10, 2010.
