Hawaii License and ID Renewal

Renew Hawaii Driver’s License or ID

Driving in Hawaii requires a valid license and a valid non-driver ID may be required for many other reasons.

Licenses and IDs in Hawaii are now all REAL ID-compliant. If you already obtained a REAL ID, you do NOT need to present documentation when you renew.

Renewal of a Hawaii ID or license requires:

• Visiting a licensing office.
  • Consider making an appointment if possible.
• Passing a vision test (for driver’s license renewal). You may present proof you passed an examination from a licensed ophthalmologist or optometrist within the past 6 months if you prefer.
• Presenting a medical certification (for Class 4 drivers).
• Providing payment for the renewal fee.
