Will Your Driving Licence Be Suspended If Your Mobile Number Is Not Linked?
Recently, messages have been circulating on social media claiming that your Driving Licence (DL) could be suspended if your mobile number is not linked before September 25, 2026.
But vehicle owners do not need to panic.
According to the latest available information, there is no confirmed nationwide government notification saying that all Driving Licences will automatically be suspended after September 25 if the mobile number is not updated.
However, the Parivahan system does recommend keeping your mobile number updated with your Driving Licence.
Why Should You Update Your Mobile Number?
Keeping the correct mobile number linked with your DL can help you:
- Receive important transport-related alerts
- Use online RTO services
- Receive OTPs for verification
- Keep your vehicle and licence information updated
You can check and update your details through the official Sarathi Parivahan portal. Avoid clicking unknown links received through WhatsApp, SMS or social media.
