How long does it take to renew your driving license?
I just noticed that my driver’s license expires in two months. I’ve never had to renew my license before, so I’m not sure what to expect. How long does renewing a driver’s license take?

Renewing your driver’s license is important so you don’t get hit with a
ticket
for driving without one. Depending on where you live, how long it takes to renew your driving license varies from the same day to six weeks.If you have time, the fastest way to renew your driver’s license is at the DMV. Just pop into the closest location with your license and supporting documentation, which typically includes your:
- Birth certificate
- Passport
- Utility bill
- Social Security card
If you don’t have time to go to the DMV, most states allow you to renew your driving license online. Just go to your state’s DMV or Secretary of State website and follow the instructions. You usually have to upload the documentation that’s listed above. If everything goes well, you should get your new license in four to six weeks.
