Attention Texas residents! Please be aware that the current online application for driver license and ID services will be discontinued on June 1, 2025. If you are eligible for Dl Renewal Online and other related services, it’s crucial to transition to the new, official, and secure platform: Texas by Texas (TxT).
Transitioning to Texas by Texas (TxT) for Your DL Renewal Online
Texas by Texas (TxT) is your one-stop platform for efficiently managing your driver license and identification needs online. This user-friendly system allows you to seamlessly handle various tasks, including dl renewal online, address changes, and replacements for lost or stolen cards. Moreover, TxT enables you to remove the “B” restriction from your driver’s license after successfully completing a third-party skills test and update your emergency contact information, all within a secure digital environment.
Services Available Through TxT for DL and ID Management
With TxT, you can access a comprehensive suite of online services designed to simplify driver license and ID management:
- Renew your driver license, commercial driver license, and/or identification (ID) card conveniently online.
- Change the address associated with your driver license, commercial driver license, and/or ID card without visiting a physical office.
- Replace a lost or stolen card swiftly through the online portal, saving you time and hassle.
- View and update your emergency contacts ensuring your information is always current and accessible when needed.
Remember that starting May 7, 2025, the REAL ID requirement will be enforced by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for air travel within the United States. Ensure your driver license or ID card is REAL ID compliant, indicated by a star in the upper right corner, if you plan to travel by air. If your current card doesn’t have this indicator and you wish to obtain a REAL ID compliant card, check your eligibility for dl renewal online or request a duplicate through TxT.
What You’ll Need for Your DL Renewal Online
To complete your dl renewal online or other transactions through TxT, ensure you have the following readily available:
- A printer to print your temporary driver license or ID, which will be valid for 60 days. Alternatively, you can choose to receive a temporary document by email, but printing is mandatory for it to be considered valid. If you lack printer access, renewals can be processed via phone at 1-866-DL-RENEW (1-866-357-3639).
- A valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express) for payment processing.
- The last four digits of your Social Security number for verification purposes.
- Your current Texas driver license or ID card for information confirmation.
