Are you compliant with federal REAL ID requirements?
The Federal REAL ID deadline has been extended. Starting October 1, 2021, you’ll need a valid passport, a U.S. military ID, or a REAL ID-compliant driver license with a gold star to travel in the U.S.
Got a valid passport or a gold star?
You’re compliant and good to go!

Can I renew online?
Visit www.texas.gov/dlrenewal to check your eligibility and renew your driver license or ID online, or you can visit a DPS office.
