Everyone who drives in North Carolina will be asked to supply a DL-123 at some point. Anyone applying for a North Carolina driver's license for the first time must provide a DL-123. If you're trying to get your license reinstated after a suspended license from a serious moving violation or DUI, you must also submit the form. You do not need the DL-123 form if you're just renewing your license. If you had a license in another state and recently moved to North Carolina, you'll need to show a DL-123. You may also need a DL-123 if a court has ordered you to produce one for various reasons. Along with your DL-123, you must also show proof of North Carolina residency and personal identification to obtain your license in the state.
