Are there driving permit between states?

Moving States, Do I have to get a new driving permit?

  • Got my permit in California in June of this year and just turned 16. I can get my license in January but I am moving to a different state. Does this mean I have to do the whole drivers ed and written test and hold my permit for 6 months again in the other state?

  • Answer:

    Yes, because your permit test was taken in California at the California DMV based on California laws. They shouldnt differ but I think you need a permit in your new state. Those in your household who are moving and have drivers license's will also need to get a new state drivers license. I recommend you check the DMV of your new state (which you didnt mention) online to find your answer.

You shouldnt have to take drivers ed again, however once your adress changes and you dont have it changed on your permit it is considered invalid. Call the DMV where you will be moving and ask them what you need to do because by stste it may be different.

I dont believe so. It should be like renewing your driver license. As long as its not expired. But to make sure call the local DMV

no you don't have to do anything other than not let your license expire.simply go to the office that you would to get your license renewed,and follow the same procedure as you would normally and you will be given a new license.just make sure that it does not expire and you act in a timely fashion.

Wish you had mentioned where you are moving to. Some states will recognize your permit from another state, but most won't. Prepare for the worst, and assume you will need to start over.
