DVLA and Passports

[NE5]

Has anybody renewed their driving license without having a passport ?

I need to renew my driving licence because of the 10 year renewal point, but my passport ran out in 2014.

And I've looked on the passport renewal section of Gov UK and the only 2 options are renew or apply for a new one.

Is 6 years out of date classed as a renewal ?

Thanks for that, I am presuming that at some point in the application online process, I will have to input my expired passport number.

That would make it a renewal, not a new application, which could be a different process.

I don't even want one, I doubt I will travel abroad again thats why I didn't renew it already, I just need to renew my driving licence !!!

Spot on advice, I went to the Post Office and its done for 21.50, including a new photo as they have a photo booth. Now waiting for it to come back.

Many thanks to everybody.
