Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) Advice for License Services During the Holiday

Fruitcake, eggnog and renew your driver's license? DDS customers who need a license renewal, replacement, and/or an address change can now get these services at select Kroger and Publix grocery stores.

"Save time this holiday season-renew your driver's license while you grocery shop! Check it off your list and make more time for what matters most," commented DDS Commissioner Spencer R. Moore.

DDS has joined the Georgia Department of Revenue (DOR) vehicle registration self-service kiosks located at select Kroger and Publix stores. This allows customers to take care of their driver services transactions plus receive a $5 discount for completed transactions. For a list of grocery stores with kiosks, please visit the DDS website at https://dds.georgia.gov/find-location/store-kiosk.

Customers aged 63 and younger who are American Citizens can renew any card that is available through DDS Online Services including all non-commercial licenses, ID cards, and select commercial driver's licenses (CDL). CDL customers may be limited in what they can do via kiosk due to their self-certification and/or HAZMAT status. The kiosk provides an updated temporary paper license for customers to legally drive, and the permanent card, complete with a new photo, will be mailed in about 45 days.

DDS wishes everyone a healthy, safe, and a happy holiday season. For complete driver licensing and testing information, please visit, www.dds.georgia.com.
