As long as your Texas drivers license hasn’t been expired for more than two years, you can update it by following one of the same four drivers license renewal methods you’d follow if you were renewing your license on time:

  • Online
  • By mail
  • By phone
  • In person
Try to update your driver license as soon as possible (waiting too long could get you a traffic ticket for driving with an expired license, after all), but keep in mind that you can’t just choose whichever method suits your fancy at the time; your last renewal notice will include which method you’re allowed to use.

Of course, depending on how long you’ve had an expired license, you might no longer have that renewal notice lying around. If you don’t, you can call the TX DPS to find out how you can renew, or you can just visit your closest DPS location and renew in person. Nearly everyone can use the in-person method.

Expired License for More Than Two Years?

If your driver license has been expired for more than two years, you’ll have to start the whole application process over again. That includes taking every test and paying every fee.
