Motor Vehicle Administration - Identification Cards, Licenses, and Permits - Repeal of Color Photograph Requirement

SB 87 repeals Maryland's requirement that driver's licenses, identification cards, and moped permits include a color photograph. It removes the specific mandate for color photos from relevant sections of state law (Sections 12-301(g)(2)(v), 16-111.1(d)(2)(iv), and 16-122(d)(3)(v)). This change directly affects Maryland residents applying for or renewing these documents, allowing the Motor Vehicle Administration to accept non-color photographs if they meet other requirements. The bill takes effect October 1, 2026.
