Lost or stolen EDL or EIC

Replace lost or stolen EDL or EIC

If your enhanced driver's licence (EDL) or enhanced ID card (EIC) is lost or stolen, call ICBC driver licensing at 1-800-950-1498.

The Enhanced driver's licence (EDL) and Enhanced ID card (EIC) programs are being phased out, which means we are not replacing, renewing or issuing new EDLs or EICs. If your EDL/EIC was lost or stolen, we will issue you a driver's licence/BCID. If the expiry date of your EDL/EIC is within the 180-day renewal window, the standard BCDL/BCID renewal fees will apply, otherwise no fee is required.

Found your card?

If you find your EDL or EIC after reporting it missing, you

  • can't use the card to cross the border
  • can still use your EDL to drive

Important: If you try to use your EDL or EIC at the U.S. border while its status on our records is lost or stolen, it will be confiscated. You could also encounter problems if you're pulled over by the police in B.C.
