When you apply for an Idaho Driver’s License or Identification Card, you will need to bring the following items with you:

  • Valid proof of Idaho residency
  • Valid proof of age and identity

***New Rules Regarding Instruction Permits***

In the past, the rule for instruction permit renewals was that as long as the permit had not expired for a year or more, the applicant would not be required to retake the written test to either renew the permit or to continue on with getting the license or endorsement.

The Idaho Transportation Department has made the following change: If the instruction permit expires, the applicant will be required to retake the written test if the previous test was taken and passed a year or more ago.

If you have any questions, please contact our office at 208-983-2217.
