The lawyer reminded about the need to replace the automatically extended rights.

Russians were reminded of the need for a planned replacement of their driver's licenses in 2026. Lawyer Galina Zemskova stated this on March 12.

"First of all, these are drivers whose license expires on January 1, 2026 or later, and the three-year extension rule no longer applies to them. Secondly, the owners of rights that were automatically extended earlier will need to be replaced, for example, if their term expired in 2022-2023. In 2026, the deadline for mandatory replacement of certificates is coming for them," the lawyer said in an interview with RIA Novosti.
