Did you know that most Texas driver licenses (DL) and identification cards (ID) can be renewed up to two years before and after the expiration date? Did you know that you can replace, or change your address or emergency contacts on your DL, CDL, ID or motorcycle license without going into a driver license office? You may also be able to renew your DL, CDL or ID online. You can also obtain your driver record, check you driving status and pay reinstatements. You may also conduct a DL or ID transaction by telephone or by mail.

The Texas Department of Public Safety issues driver licenses that are valid for up to eight years to Texas residents. Driver license offices are located throughout the state and offer services by appointment only. Same day appointments may be available at select driver license offices.
