How do I renew my driver's license?

Asked 2 years ago
Renewing a driver's license in Texas is a process that can typically be accomplished either online, by mail, or in person, depending on various eligibility criteria. The first step is to determine if you meet the requirements for online renewal, which usually include being under the age of sixty-nine, not having any outstanding tickets, and not needing to change personal information, such as your name or address. If eligible, individuals can visit the Texas Department of Transportation website to access the online renewal portal. There, you will need to provide your driver's license number, date of birth, and the last four digits of your Social Security number. If you prefer to renew by mail, you can complete a renewal application and send it along with the applicable fee to the appropriate address. For those who need to renew in person, a visit to your local driver license office is required. Bring the necessary identification documents, and be prepared to pay the renewal fee. It is advisable to consult the Texas Department of Transportation's website for specific instructions and current fees, as well as for any COVID-19 related updates that could affect operations.
