Texas Drivers License

If you have a current Texas drivers license and you move to a new location in
Texas you have 30 days to change the address on your drivers license. The
simplest way to do this is online. Go to www.txdps.state.tx.us and follow the
instructions for changing your address. You will need to have a valid credit card
for paying the $10.00 fee, and you will need access to a printer so that you can
print out your temporary receipt. Otherwise, call or go in person to one of the
Texas DPS locations (see list below).
For a new Texas drivers license (first time license or moving to Texas from out of
state) go in person to a DPS location. You will need to complete an application,
provide proof of identity (proof of Social Security, a birth certificate, or an out-of state drivers license), provide proof of vehicle registration, consent to be
photographed, fingerprinted, and provide a signature. You will need to pass a
vision examination. First time applicants need to schedule a time for taking the
driving test and pass both the driving and written test. Out of state applicants
should apply within 90 days after entry into the state and need to be prepared to
surrender their valid out-of-state drivers license upon application. Fees are:
$25.00 for a drivers license (expiration 6 years)
$16.00 for an ID card (under 60 years of age and expiration of 6 years)
$6.00 for an ID card (over 60 years of age and an indefinite expiration date)
