​​​​​​​​​Expiration Dates Extended for DMV Credentials 

On Sept. 2. 2020, Governor Cooper signed Coronavirus Relief Act 3.0. Among its provisions is a new extension of the expiration dates of five DMV credentials. If the credentials have already expired or are about to, the​ new expiration dates are now 30 days after the governor lifts his state of emergency order related to the COVID Pandemic.

The three credentials impacted are:

  • Disability placards
  • State IDs
  • Inspection mechanic licenses​
