Correct answer
Ten years from issue.
Ten years under Article 12.2 of the General Driver Regulations. For A1 and the other classes in this group, the ordinary period is ten years below age 65 and five from that age; medical circumstances can reduce it. Obtaining another licence later is not what determines A1 validity. Arrange renewal before expiry if you wish to continue driving on that licence.
Legal basis: art. 12.2 RGCond
