FAQs

What do I need to bring with me to get a Colorado driver license, permit or ID card?

Our identification requirements webpage outlines what you need to bring to your driver license appointment. These documents prove your: full legal name, date of birth, identity and lawful presence. In some cases, a single document may be all you need. However, you may need to bring multiple documents to prove all four elements. All documents presented must be certified originals, certified amended originals or true copies certified by the issuing agency. If you cannot prove each of the required elements with the documents set forth in the chart, then you may be referred to Exceptions Processing to prove the required elements with additional/alternative documents.

You will also need to present your Social Security Card or acceptable proof of your Social Security number, unless you are a CO-RCSA (SB 251) applicant.

Proof of address and appropriate payment is also required.

What does the star on my driver license/instruction permit/identification card mean?

The star in the top right corner of your driver license, instruction permit or identification card indicates that your card has been issued in compliance with the federal REAL ID Act. This card may be used as identification for federal purposes, such as boarding an aircraft or entering a federal building.
