A 2137 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Directs MVC to implement and offer to public wireless telephone application technology that allows person to add digital version of certain identification to wireless telephone.

New Jersey's A2137 requires the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to create and offer a smartphone app allowing residents to add digital versions of their New Jersey driver's licenses or state ID cards to their phones. The app must meet international security standards set by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). This directly affects all New Jersey residents who hold a physical driver's license or state ID card, enabling them to use a digital version instead of carrying the physical card. The law takes effect immediately upon passage, with the MVC responsible for developing the necessary rules and regulations.
