Homeless Exemption
The Department is authorized to waive the $17 fee for homeless persons to obtain a duplicate Nevada driver's license or identification card. This is a one-time exemption for duplicates only. You must apply for this in person at a DMV office and submit the proper proof of identity and forms.
- Driver's License or Identification Card Application (DMV 002)
- Declaration of Homeless Status (DMV-128)
We suggest that you pay the $3 photo fee at the time you receive your duplicate if possible. You may be required to reimburse this fee to the Department at the time of your next regular renewal, if you are employed at the time of the renewal.
The fee exemption does not apply to:
- New residents obtaining a Nevada license or ID for the first time
- Renewals
- Any fees or requirements associated with a license suspension or revocation
- Commercial licenses
