Section 670:15-25-1 - Procedure for obtaining a renewal commercial driver license in person

(a)General requirements. During the month of expiration or as provided in (d) of this Section, each licensee shall present proper identification and pay the required fee to a Licensed Operator or to Service Oklahoma for renewal of the commercial driver license. Failure to renew a commercial driver license by the end of the month of expiration shall not relieve the person of the obligation to renew his or her commercial driver license under the provisions required by law and this Section if the person wishes to keep his or her commercial driver license in force.

(b)Required identification.

(1)Renewal with expiring or expired commercial driver license. The expiring or expired commercial driver license provided as identification may be retained by the licensee, after Service Oklahoma or the Licensed Operator has invalidated the credential by punching a hole through the license class and license type displayed. The applicant must provide current United States citizenship, unless noted on the driving index confirming the proof of citizenship required by 49 C.F.R. § 383.71 has been met and the date it was done [49 C.F.R. § 383.73(a) (2)(vi)] or lawful permanent resident and proof of domicile in the State of Oklahoma.

(2)Renewal without driver license. Any person who does not have the expiring or expired commercial driver license shall provide proof of identification as prescribed in OAC 670:15-1-3(b) for an Oklahoma REAL ID Compliant credential and OAC 670:15-1-3(c) for an Oklahoma REAL ID Non-Compliant credential.

(c)Vision screening. Persons holding a commercial driver license shall, upon renewal, meet the vision standards established in OAC 670:15-11-7 and 49 C.F.R. § 391.41.

(d)Limitations to issuance of a renewal commercial driver license.

(1) A renewal commercial driver license shall be issued only to an individual whose driving privilege is not under suspension, revocation, disqualification, cancellation, or denial and who complies with this Chapter, state law, and federal law and regulation.

(2) Any applicant who requests a renewal of his or her commercial driver license when the license has been expired in excess of three (3) years shall be required to appear before a Driver License Examiner, pursuant to OAC 670:15-23-2 as for an original commercial driver license.

(e)Early renewal of a commercial driver license. Any licensee may renew his or her commercial driver license no more than one (1) year prior to the expiration date. A renewal which occurs more than one (1) year prior to the expiration date shall be treated as a replacement under the provisions of OAC 670:15-1-10.

(f)Change of commercial driver license number. A request by a licensee to change the commercial driver license number shall conform to the provisions of OAC 670:15-23-3.
