Mexico City Extends Permanent Driver’s License Through 2026, Expands Evening and Weekend Service

To handle surging demand, the city is lengthening hours with weekend modules for this no-expiration document.

Overview

  • The application window now runs through December 31, 2026, according to the city government and Semovi.
  • Service has been expanded with weekday hours from 9:00 to 21:00, Saturday attention at multiple sites, and a Sunday macromodule at Ciudad Deportiva operating 9:00 to 21:00.
  • The new permanent license authorizes only private automobiles, while motorcycles require A1/A2 credentials or an older permanent license.
  • Appointments via the Semovi platform (Llave CDMX) are required, with identification, proof of address, and a 1,500‑peso payment presented at fixed or mobile modules across the city.
  • Eligible Type A holders can request a digital permanent license in App CDMX, and officials stress the process is personal and should not involve intermediaries.
