There are four ways to renew your driver's license -- in person, by mail, by telephone or online. However, not every state offers all four of these options. If you have changed your name, address, or other information, you may have to renew in person. If your license has expired beyond a certain time period, you may also have to renew in person. On the other hand, states like Pennsylvania don't allow in-person license renewals at all. Make sure to check with your local BMV, DLD, DMV, DOL, DOT, DPS, MVA or OMV for state-specific requirements for driver's license renewal.
