SB 230 Kansas Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Permitting the division of vehicles to contract with an entity to establish and issue a digital proof of drivers' license and digital proof of identification card, regulating the use thereof and providing a fee for such digital proofs of identification.

Kansas SB 230 allows the Kansas Division of Vehicles to create or contract with entities to issue optional digital driver's licenses and digital identification cards through a secure electronic system. It requires strict privacy protections, including prohibiting contractors from selling or sharing user data without explicit consent, and mandates encryption standards for data transmission. The digital credentials must display only essential information for specific transactions (a "limited profile") and cannot be issued without a valid physical license first. This bill directly affects Kansas residents who hold driver's licenses or ID cards and choose to use the digital version, with fees established for these digital proofs.
