Jersey driving licences have to be renewed once every 10 years. It costs about £50 and there is a new online service for renewing licences, but online payments do not apply in St John.
St Lawrence Constable Deidre Mezbourian said about once every 10 years there was a bulk renewal where about a third of Jersey's driving licences needed renewing.
She said:"We’ve had some great feedback on our new online driving licence service.
"Parishioners say it's quick and really easy to use. The service works on your smartphone, tablet or computer - and you can take your photo with its camera."
She has urged drivers with a Jersey licence to check the back of the licence for the expiry date and, if it is due to expire before the end of January 2019, to renew it as soon as possible.
Constable Mezbourian reminded drivers it was an offence to drive on an expired licence.

Concern over staffing for MoT tests in Jersey
Ryan Morrison
BBC News Online
A lack of qualified technicians is "one of the biggest issues" surrounding the introduction of MoT-style tests in Jersey, according to the Environment Scrutiny Panel.
The panel has reviewed plans to implement international standards for vehicle safety by Infrastructure Minister Kevin Lewis.
BBCCopyright: BBC
Deputy Lewis plans to introduce the new legislation, including bringing in the tests, from 2019 to allow island drivers to comply with legislation when driving in the EU.
The report goes into the pros and cons of the legislation and broadly supports the introduction of the tests beyond just allowing islanders to drive in Europe.
It said: "Whilst it is evident that Brexit has been the catalyst for these proposals, aside from the benefits of Jersey motorists being able to circulate across all of Europe post-Brexit, the panel heard of other potential benefits to the island, mainly improvements to road safety and environmental benefits."
As well as concerns over staffing, the panel said there were also questions over who would provide the testing and what the fees would be.
Preparations for the general election in Guernsey in June 2020 are under way.
The newly formed States' Assembly and Constitution Committee met at the end of last week where Deputy Jennifer Merrett was unanimously elected as vice president of the committee.
The committee intends to publish an initial policy letter in early 2019 which will seek approval of the proposed date for the 2020 election.
The election will see 38 deputies elected in a single island-wide district.

Tax rules for UK residents who spend a significant part of their year in Guernsey are changing.
A new double taxation agreement has been signed by Guernsey and the UK and comes into force at the start of January 2019.
Under the current system, people who spend more than 90 days in the Bailiwick become a Guernsey tax resident - that's on top of being a resident in their home country.
They are referred to as "dual residents", and their income is taxed twice by both the UK and Guernsey.
The new treaty signed by the Guernsey and UK replaces this on all forms of income, with the only exceptions being employment, business and property income in Guernsey.
For the exemption to apply, the UK has to remain their "centre of interest".
This new agreement only applies to UK taxpayers. For people from other countries the 90-day rule still stands.

Edward Rowe
BBC Radio Guernsey
Drivers using the North Beach car park at peak times this week are being told to expect delays, as the entrance route is being resurfaced.
It means that cars will enter and leave the car park using the White Rock exit road, which becomes two way for the week.
Guernsey Harbours said it had chosen this week to carry out resurfacing work because it was generally a quiet time.
States of GuernseyCopyright: States of Guernsey
Drivers using the temporary access and exit route, between the Weighbridge clock tower and the Liberation monument, are being told to "slow down and look both ways".
The car park itself is open as usual, as resurfacing is restricted to the access road off the QE2 marina.
During the first few days of the work, cyclists and pedestrians will not be able to use the pavement that goes through the top of the car park, as this will be fenced off.
