Driver Licensing > Online Driver License Renewal

Please note: If you wish to obtain a REAL ID compliant license or non-driver identification card for the first time, you will need to renew in person at any DMV office, and bring with you the required documents. Please be advised that if you renew online, the license or identification card mailed to you will indicate "Not For Federal Identification."

If you choose to renew online, your current photograph will be printed on your new license or identification card. There is no option to have a new photo taken when you renew online. You must have a renewal notice containing a "Renewal Identification Number (RIN)". If you cannot find your notice or if your renewal notice does not list a RIN, you are not eligible to renew online and you must renew in person at a DMV office. If you attempt to renew online and you get "locked out" by the system you will have to renew in person at a DMV office.

If you are interested in receiving a REAL ID driver license or non-driver identification card at this renewal, please be advised that you are required to renew in person at a DMV office. Please visit our REAL ID webpage for more information.

Online Renewal Requirements

Before starting your renewal, please review the following:

1. You can only renew your own driver license or non-driver identification card. The online renewal system will ask you to certify that you are the license or identification card holder.
2. You must have a renewal notice with a 10-digit Renewal Identification Number (RIN) printed on it. You will be asked to enter the RIN as part of the renewal process.
3. You must have your current driver license or non-driver identification card with you. You will be asked to enter your first and last name, license number or identification card number and the issue date as it appears on your current driver license or identification card. The issue date is printed on the back of your current license.
4. You will be asked about organ donation. Please consider giving the "Gift of Life".
5. You must have a MasterCard or Visa credit card for payment.
6. You must be connected to a printer to print your temporary license or identification card. The printout, along with your current hard plastic license or identification card will serve as "proof" until your new card is mailed to you. Your new license or identification card will be mailed to you within 60 days.
7. Please note: For applicants applying for their 21st birthday, to ensure your permanent license or identification card is printed in a horizontal orientation, you should renew online no sooner than your birthday.
