When you’re issued a new Manitoba driver’s licence, you will be provided with a temporary driver’s licence certificate (valid for up to 45 days). You must carry your temporary driver’s licence certificate with you at all times until you receive your permanent, one-piece driver’s licence in the mail. When you get your first driver’s licence, you will be photographed at your Autopac agent or at a Manitoba Public Insurance Service Centre. You’ll need a new photo every five years.

Please be aware that the Manitoba driver’s licence cannot be used to cross the United States border.

Your driver’s licence must be in your possession at all times while driving and must be produced, along with the vehicle registration certificate, when requested by a peace officer.

Manitoba’s one-piece driver’s licence

Drivers under the age of 18 years are issued driver’s licences that show the exact date of the driver’s 18th birthday.
