How do i go about renewing my driving liscence? UK.?

Either check on the DVLA site http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Motoring/DriverLicensing/NeedANewOrUpdatedLicence/index.htm

Or get someone to go to the post office and pick up the relevant forms, and send them to you, fill them in, follow the instructions for payment and send them.

You will need a UK address to renew your license.

If you are living abroad permamently or from 6-12 months (depending on the country) then the country you are in probably require you to surrender your UK license and change it to a local one anyway.
Just as the UK does with foreign residents/long term visitors.

You can't.

I've had that problem too. You have to have a UK address to get a UK Driving License.

If you have family still living in the UK, I don't see any reason why you can't use their address as your "permanent" UK address.

Yes you need a form.

Timbo is here

Below is the website you need - it is not DVLA but is DIRECT.GOV.UK

Got that by doing a little research which it seems some are not bothering to do.

have a look on the DVLA website - all the forms you need are on there.
