Changing Your
Address
If your address has
changed, your driver's licence and
insurance policy will both have to
be updated. You must let ICBC know
within 10 days of moving.
If you go to your
local
Autoplan broker, you can request
a change of address on your driver's
licence and insurance at the same
time.
Changing the address
on your driver's licence
You can change the
address on your driver's licence one
of three ways:
1. Online
Use the provincial
government's
Multiple Address Change service.
2. Phone

Changing the
address on your insurance policy
To change the address
on your vehicle insurance policy, please
go in-person, with your existing policy,
to any
Autoplan broker.
Why is it necessary
to go to an Autoplan broker?
Changing your address
may affect the terms of your insurance
policy. The amount of your insurance
premium depends, in part, on the
“territory” where your vehicle is
primarily used. Moving to a different
territory in BC could result in a
premium increase, or refund. By going to
an Autoplan broker's office, your
current territory can be verified.
Ensuring your policy
has the correct address also reduces the
risk of your vehicle's registration
being transferred fraudulently.
