Never a line, never a wait – Texas.gov/Driver puts you first. The theme of the new Texas.gov advertising campaign uses a light-hearted approach to illustrate how every Texan can feel like a VIP when they take care of their driving business online. In fact, millions of Texans already trust the official state website that puts them and their time first. Every day, Texas.gov securely processes more than 13,000 transactions for online driving services.

Texas.gov/Driver is the go-to place for Texans to access several of the most popular online services, including:

• Driver License Renewal – Thousands of Texans are eligible to renew their license online every year. You can even renew up to a year before and a year after your expiration date. If you’ve moved recently, you can also change your address online.
• Vehicle Registration Renewal – Every county in Texas offers online vehicle registration renewal. Make sure to renew before your sticker expires so you can skip the trip to your local tax assessor’s office.
• Driver Records – Order and print your own driver record, including certified versions required for defensive driving courses. All you need is access to a printer.
• Driver License Reinstatement – You can pay reinstatement fees and check the status of your driving eligibility at any time with this convenient online service.

The Texas.gov advertising campaign includes two commercials that will air in the Austin area throughout May, as well as interactive TV and online banner ads that will run statewide. Visit the Texas.gov YouTube channel to view extended 60 second versions of both commercials – I’m Kurt Fresco and Dancing Mom.

And remember, Texas.gov is a convenient, fuel-efficient way to complete many other government services online too – order a birth certificate, purchase TDCJ commissary items, pay CHIP enrollment fees, apply for or renew a concealed handgun license, and much more. With 1,000+ online services, secure payment processing and friendly 24/7 customer service, you’re always a VIP here. Take it online, Texas!
