If you have previously submitted an unlimited medical report for these categories it is deemed to be valid for ten years from the date of issue.
If you wish to keep any of the above categories on your licence you must now submit a Medical Report (D501). However, if you no longer wish to have these categories on your licence you may complete a declaration similar to the one below. Your licence will then be issued for categories B (car), EB (car & trailer), W (tractor) and categories A1 and A (motorcycles) where applicable
