How soon must a licensed driver notify the MTO after a name or address change?

A licensed driver must notify the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO) within 6 days after a name or address change. This requirement ensures that the driver’s records are up to date, which is essential for effective communication and for ensuring that all legal documents, including driver’s licenses, are accurate.

Keeping this information current helps maintain road safety and accountability, as it allows for proper identification and contact in the event of an incident. In addition, having accurate records aids in enforcing laws and regulations more efficiently. This 6-day requirement is designed to promote timely updates, supporting both the driver's responsibilities and the MTO's ability to manage driver information effectively.
