Texas Driver’s License Eligibility

Check your Texas driver’s license status

Concerned about a suspension or unsure whether you are eligible to drive? The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) License Eligibility service lets you check your driving eligibility, review required compliance items, and pay applicable reinstatement fees.

Before you begin

Have your Texas driver license or ID number, date of birth, and the last four digits of your Social Security number ready. Enter this information only on the official Texas DPS website—not on this page.

The DPS service is not for license renewals or duplicate licenses. Checking your status does not, by itself, reinstate a suspended license or authorize you to drive.
