SF 1500 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Various provisions related to driver and vehicle services modification

SF 1500 modifies Minnesota's driver and vehicle services by changing fee structures and adding online renewal options. It imposes an $8 fee for vehicle registration renewals and a $12 fee for other transactions (like new registrations), while eliminating fees for refunds, corrections, and permanent title surrenders. The bill establishes online renewal for driver's licenses (both REAL ID-compliant and noncompliant) under specific conditions, such as no identity changes and having a recent photo on file. It also allocates fees to state accounts (including technology and operating funds) and requires quarterly payments to deputy registrars for processing no-fee transactions ($9 per renewal, $13 per other transaction). The changes take effect July 1, 2025.
