NEW MEXICO DRIVER’S LICENSE REPLACEMENT

One Quick Trip!

NEED A NEW MEXICO DRIVER’S LICENSE REPLACEMENT?

Did you lose your license or was it recently stolen? We understand how frustrating and scary this can be! Someone could have access to your personal information, such as your full name and home address. We recommend that you replace your license as soon as possible. You have 2 options when it comes to replacing your license.

  • applying for a replacement and keeping the same license number (recommended for misplaced or lost licenses)
  • applying for a replacement and changing your license number (recommended for stolen licenses or identity theft)

WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE REPLACING YOUR DRIVER’S LICENSE

When applying for a replacement driver’s license, you will be issued the same expiration date that was on your lost or stolen license, unless you replace your license within 90 days from expiration. Once you apply for a New Mexico Driver’s License replacement, you will receive a temporary printout of your license which is valid for 45 days. You will need to carry this printout until you receive your physical Driver’s License in the mail. All Driver’s Licenses are printed and mailed by the State of New Mexico. Please allow up to 3 weeks for you to receive your new License in the mail. We understand that many scenarios may impact your Driver’s License replacement process. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at 505-341-2MVD, or email us. We will be more than happy to assist you in the process.

DOCUMENTS NEEDED FOR A DRIVER’S LICENSE REPLACEMENT

Our goal at MVD Now is to save you the headache and stress that comes with replacing your driver’s license. We understand that you are busy, that time is valuable and limited, and that the last thing you want to do is wait in line. That’s why we want to help you make one quick trip to the MVD. Below are the documents that you will require to replace your New Mexico Driver’s License. Keep in mind that not every scenario requires documentation.

  • Police report (if the license was stolen and you want a new license number)
  • A signed statement saying that you want MVD to issue you a new driver’s license number because your old license was lost or stolen (only needed if you want a different license number)

The documents mentioned above are only required to replace your New Mexico Driver’s License with a new license number. If you simply want to replace your license with the same number, you do not need to bring in any documentation. We will ask you for some personal information such as your name, date of birth, federal identification number, or other identifiers to find you in the New Mexico MVD system. Once found, we can continue with the replacement process. 

REQUIRED EXAM FOR YOUR DRIVER’S LICENSE REPLACEMENT – VISION EXAM

This is a simple eye exam that is administered to everyone applying for a driver’s license. This ensures that you meet the minimum eyesight requirement to operate a motor vehicle with or without the need for corrective lenses. This test is administered in all of our MVD Now offices.
