1. Go to any driver licensing office.
2. Present your Washington State driver license and proof of active duty military service.
3. If you are a spouse or child dependent, present your Washington State driver license and dependent identification card.
4. Pay the $10 replacement fee by check or money order.

If you have a “military” driver license or a regular license that remains in effect for the length of your service even though the expiration date has passed, you should carry your military identification card as evidence that the license is valid. A spouse or dependent child should carry their dependent identification card.
A "military" license is not required, your driver license remains in effect under the same conditions as a license with “military,” even after the expiration date has passed. However, getting a license with “military” on it will ensure that we will keep a record of your license for the entire length of your military service, and make it easier for private businesses and government officials to determine that your license is valid.

Under Wisconsin Statutes 343.05(4)(a)(1), any license issued to a person on active military duty does not expire. Your license will expire 30 days after you return to Wisconsin or 90 days after discharge from active duty, whichever is earlier.

You can either renew your driver license through the mail or have the DMV put a notation on your driving record to extend your license expiration date until you are no longer on active duty or return to Wisconsin.
You may renew by mail by completing a Wisconsin Drivers License (DL)/Identification Card (ID) Application, (form MV3001).  Have an authorized physician or an examiner from an out-of-state driver-licensing agency complete the Certificate of Vision Examination by Competent Authority, (form MV3030V).

Military Extension Policy

If eligible to renew by mail, active duty military personnel are exempt from having to complete an application form, vision screening or paying the renewal fee; however, a copy of their active duty military ID card (front and back) must be submitted to verify active duty status. An "I" restriction will be added to the driver's license for active duty military personnel to read: "Expiration waived when accompanied by active duty military identification card." If the licensee does not want this restriction, the person will be required to complete the application form, pass a vision screening, and pay the required fee for the service - renewal requirements will not be "waived" for those stationed overseas and they will not be eligible for renewal exemptions. Dependents of active duty personnel are still required to complete the full application process, pay the fee, and send a copy of their military dependent ID card.

All applications for renewal by mail must be sent to:
Driver Services,
5300 Bishop Blvd,
Cheyenne, WY 82009-3340.
Any questions, please call (307)777-4800.
