Ohioans between the ages of 21 and 65 now have the option to renew their driver's licenses and state-issued ID cards online on the Ohio BMV's website.

Beginning Monday, June 26, 2022, Ohioans can now complete the renewal application online and receive an updated license in the mail without having to leave their homes.

The service will be available to U.S. citizens between the ages of 21 and 65 who already have a driver's license or ID card that was processed in person.

Drivers 65 and older are not permitted to use the BMV's online functions because they must take an updated vision test in person. 

All services will still be offered at BMV locations if an individual prefers that option. "Even if you go in person, we now have a 'Get in Line, Online' option where you can reserve your spot in line," Husted said.
