Electronic drivers' licenses authorization

Minnesota's SF 2332 authorizes the Department of Public Safety (DVS) to issue electronic driver's licenses that comply with national standards. It requires secure authentication for businesses or government entities (relying parties) accepting these licenses, prohibits tracking without consent, and mandates privacy protections for user data. Drivers must still carry a physical license while operating a vehicle but can present electronic versions without surrendering devices. Electronic credentials will incur an additional fee and expire according to existing license schedules. The bill takes effect July 1, 2026, with rulemaking starting immediately after enactment.
