House Bill 404 Extends Expiration Date of Driver Licenses, Identification Cards and Vehicle Registrations
Due to the ongoing pandemic, Ohio Governor Mike DeWine has signed Ohio House Bill 404, which extends the expiration date of driver licenses (DL), identification cards (ID), and vehicle registrations beyond December 1, 2020. Now, if a customer's expiration date on their DL, ID, or vehicle registration is March 9, 2020, to April 1, 2021, the expiration date has been automatically extended and will remain valid until July 1, 2021.
Many of the services Ohioans rely on at the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) can be accomplished online at www.OPlates.com. If customers need to purchase a temporary tag for their car, renew their vehicle registration, order new license plates, check their driving record, or another service, they can take care of it online from the comfort and safety of their home.
If a customer must visit a location, they are strongly encouraged to use the 'Get in Line, Online' virtual queuing system. This system allows customers to virtually get in line before arriving at the BMV, thereby minimizing the amount of time physically spent at the agency and keeping customers safe.
Note: You will be required to wear a face covering* in accordance with local and/or state mandates when visiting a deputy registrar or driver examination location. Please bring a face covering with you to ensure you can obtain the services you need.
*unless a medical or other exemption applies per the Ohio Department of Health.

Changes are coming to the Ohio Drivers License Renewal Process and, if you are a resident of Ohio with a valid driver’s license, they will impact you.
As of June 2nd, 2018, Ohio will no longer print out your driver’s license while you wait. For security reasons, there is now a two-step process to renew your driver’s license:
- Go to your local BMV ahead of your license renewal with the applicable documentation, complete your vision test, and pay the renewal fees (which will remain the same). Your photo will also be taken.
- Your driver’s license will be mailed to your home and arrive within 2 weeks.
The Ohio BMV is making this change to be compliant with federal regulations. The new licenses and identification cards will also have a new look, and be compliant with new federal travel restrictions going into effect in 2020. If you choose to renew with a Compliant Driver’s License or Identification Card that meets national travel security requirements, you will need to provide additional documents to prove the following:
- full legal name
- date of birth
- social security number
- proof of Ohio residency
- proof of legal presence
This includes certified copies of birth certificates, unexpired and valid US passports, Social Security Cards, bank statements, auto insurance cards, and more.
As of October 2020, any driver’s license issued prior to July 2nd, 2018 will not be accepted by the Transportation Safety Administration (TSA), so make sure you renew your licenses early, if you have travel plans in the future.
