Starting in August 2017, the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles began issuing a new, more secure Florida driver license and ID card. By December 2017, the new credential became available at all service centers throughout Florida and online. In May 2019, the department began issuing modified credentials removing the magnetic strip on the back of the card, adding a tactile security feature to the front and changing some of the data layout. In August 2020, the department developed additional enhancements to credentials, including redundant sexual predator and sexual offender designations as well as more ultraviolet (UV) features, to increase security and reduce the risk of fraud. The modified credential continues to provide Floridians the most secure over-the-counter credential on the market today. Previous driver license and ID cards will still be in use alongside the new credential until replaced or phased out. Fraud Protection: FLHSMV is committed to ensuring Florida's credential remains secure. The new credential design incorporates nearly double the fraud protection measures compared to the previous design, including redundant data, tactile security features, ultraviolet (UV) ink and optically variable features. Designated Header Colors: Credentials are issued with designated header colors that denote the type of license the customer holds. Credentials held by customers under 21 years of age will display a red box on the card front that indicates the date until which the customer will be under 21. Designations: The credential incorporates designations for lifetime sportsman's, boater, freshwater, saltwater and hunting licenses, as well as designations for Veteran, organ donor, deaf/hard of hearing, developmentally disabled, and insulin dependent. Getting Your New Card: Individuals are only required to replace their current driver license or ID card if their current credential has reached its expiration or a required change is needed, such as a name or address change. IN PERSON: Beginning August 2020, the modified credential was offered at driver license service centers and tax collector offices, with availability at all service centers by the end of August 2020. ONLINE: The modified credential became available for online renewals at MyDMV Portal by the end of August 2020. Other Notable Items: Motorcycle Endorsements (Issue dates: August 2020 – Present): Motorcycle endorsements are not spelled out on the front of Florida driver licenses. Motorcycle-also and motorcycle-only endorsements are designated by an "A" or "O" in the endorsement field located on the front of the card and are also indicated by a "A-MTRCL Also" or "O-MTRCL Only" on the back of the card. Sexual Predator/Offender Identifiers (Issue dates: August 2020 – Present): The Florida driver license and ID card allows for the identification of sexual predators and sexual offenders with a blue identifier on the bottom right of the front of the card. Sexual predators will have "Sexual Predator" spelled out on the card, while sexual offenders have "943.0435, F.S." listed in this area. AAMVA Mandatory Data Element Numbers (Issue dates: August 2020 – Present): The Florida driver license and ID card display small numbers next to each data field (i.e. name, expiration date, sex, height). The inclusion of these numbers is required by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators' driver license and ID card design standard and has been adopted by many states.
