license revocation

Official authorization withdrawal

License revocation is the permanent cancellation of a license by the issuing authority, typically as punishment for serious violations.

Unlike suspension, which is temporary, revocation means the license is fully terminated: After his third DUI, he faced license revocation.

The holder must usually reapply from scratch to obtain a new license, if eligible at all.
