Driver's licence number (DLN) changes
ICBC anticipates running out of seven digit driver's licence numbers by the end summer of 2023.
We are preparing to increase all driver's licence numbers from seven to eight digits by July 23, 2023. For customers, this change will be in effect as of July 24. BCID numbers will not change.
What to expect
Adding an additional digit to the driver's licence number will impact many ICBC systems and processes. It may also impact your organization.
It is important that you assess your systems and discuss this change with your business and technology teams so you're prepared to make any changes required to accommodate the additional digit.
