Need a change of address on my FL license

A) To change your address on your Florida driver’s license, you can follow these steps:

  1. Visit the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV) website at www.flhsmv.gov.
  2. Look for the “Driver License” section on the website and navigate to the “Change of Address” page. Alternatively, you can search for “Florida DMV change of address” on a search engine, and it should direct you to the correct page.
  3. On the “Change of Address” page, you will find information about the requirements and procedures. Make sure to read through the instructions carefully.
  4. Prepare the necessary documents and information. Typically, you will need your current Florida driver’s license or ID card, your new address, and proof of your new address. Acceptable proof of address may include utility bills, bank statements, lease agreements, or mortgage documents. Check the specific requirements on the DHSMV website.
  5. Complete the required forms. You may be able to download and fill out the forms online or complete them in person at a local DHSMV office. The forms usually include a driver’s license/ID card application and a change of address form.
  6. If you decide to complete the forms online, follow the instructions provided on the DHSMV website. If you prefer to complete them in person, find a nearby DHSMV office by using the “Find an Office” feature on the website.
  7. Submit the completed forms, along with any required documents, to the DHSMV. If you are submitting the forms in person, bring your identification, proof of address, and payment for any fees that may apply. If you are mailing the forms, check the DHSMV website for the correct mailing address.
  8. Pay any applicable fees. The fee for a change of address on your Florida driver’s license may vary, so check the DHSMV website or contact the DHSMV directly for the most up-to-date information. Payment methods accepted at DHSMV offices typically include cash, check, and credit/debit cards.
  9. Once your application is processed and approved, you should receive a new driver’s license or ID card with your updated address by mail.

Remember, it’s important to keep your driver’s license address up to date within 30 days of moving to a new address in Florida. Failure to do so may result in penalties or difficulties in important communications from the DHSMV.

If you have any specific questions or need further assistance, it’s recommended to visit the Florida DHSMV website or contact them directly for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
