HB 30 Wyoming House · 2025 Regular Session

Driver's licenses and IDs-revisions.

HB 30 modifies Wyoming's driver's license and ID card rules. It requires distinctive markings on licenses for people under 21, with licenses expiring when they turn 21 (after 90-day notice), and adds a $20 fee for replacement licenses. The bill also updates ID card wording to clarify they are "for identification purposes only" and streamlines replacement processes for eligible holders. These changes directly affect Wyoming residents under 21 and anyone needing license replacements.
