Washington State Department Of Licensing In Centralia

This service aids Washington residents in securing a new driver license or instruction permit, obtaining an ID card, renewing their driver license, ID card, or enhanced driver license/ID card, and modifying the name or address on a driver license. It exclusively provides the CDL knowledge test.

To initiate the process, visit the website to locate a nearby office. Applicants for a new driver license or ID card must provide proof of identity, which includes their name, date of birth, signature, and photo (a detailed list of acceptable documents can be found on the website). Additionally, applicants must pass a vision test and supply their Social Security number. New licenses require successful completion of written and driving tests, although these tests are waived for those holding a valid driver license from another state. For DOL2Go services, check the online calendar for the closest location.

Fees vary depending on the service requested, with costs determined by the type of license and its validity period. For specific fee information, visit https://dol.wa.gov/driver-licenses-and-permits/driver-licensing-fees. Clients of DSHS can obtain or renew an ID card for $5 if they have the DSHS form 16-029 completed by a DSHS caseworker.
