Filling it by hand

Errors in identity details, the licence code, or the gender/language boxes can hold up your application.

With TrafficForms

What is the DL1 form?

The DL1 (Application for Driving Licence) is the official form used to apply for a driving licence in South Africa — used when applying for your licence after passing, or renewing/replacing a licence card.

Who fills it in

  • The applicant (the person applying for or renewing the licence).

What you need

  • Your identity details (ID document/smart card).
  • Your current learner's or driving licence details, where relevant.
  • The licence code you're applying for.

The hard part — and how we help

The DL1 is rejected for errors in identity details, the licence code, or the gender/language boxes. TrafficForms fills these correctly and you review before downloading.

  • Identity details placed correctly from your ID document.
  • Licence code and related boxes filled accurately.
  • Review every field before you download.

After you've filled the DL1

  1. Print the completed form and sign it.
  2. Book and attend your DLTC appointment with the form, your ID, proof of residence, and the required photos/fees.

Frequently asked questions

Is TrafficForms official? Is this the eNaTIS website?

No. TrafficForms is an independent, private tool that helps you fill in the official form correctly. We're not connected to eNaTIS, the Department of Transport, or any licensing authority, and we don't submit anything for you.

Is my information safe?

Your uploaded documents are used only to read the details needed for your form, and are deleted after processing. You review everything before you download. See our Privacy Policy.

Will the DLTC accept a form I filled with TrafficForms?

The form is a copy of the official DL1 that you print, sign and submit yourself. Because you review and confirm every field before downloading, it's filled correctly — but acceptance always rests with the DLTC.

Is this for a new licence or a renewal?

The DL1 is used for both applying for and renewing/replacing a driving licence. Bring the supporting documents the DLTC requires for your specific case.

Selling and buying at the same time? See the LL1 form guide.
