A 3429 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Provides that organ donor designation on driver's license or identification card remains upon renewal of license or card under certain circumstances.

This bill ensures that New Jersey residents who have previously designated themselves as organ donors on their driver's license or state ID card will automatically retain that donor status when renewing their license or ID - without needing to re-register. It clarifies that the designation remains active unless the individual proactively removes it through a formal process. The law applies directly to current organ donors whose licenses or IDs include the donor designation. This change simplifies the process by preventing donor status from being lost during routine license renewals.
