DMV Reminds Driver Licenses Will Be 8 Years Long on December 12, 2016 / Administrative Effort a Step to Evenly Distribute Customer Volume by
Dover —
A legislative update to Delaware Code Title 21 §2715(e) that became law on January 1, 2012 – directing the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to begin issuing 8-year driver license renewals to all drivers – becomes fully effective next week on Monday, December 12.
