No, you cannot change your driver’s license from another state to a Florida driver’s license online. The process of transferring an out-of-state driver’s license to Florida requires an in-person visit to a Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) office.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you understand what you need to do:

Steps to Transfer Your Driver’s License to Florida:

1. Visit a local FLHSMV office:

Locate your nearest FLHSMV/Tax Collectors Office by visiting the FLHSMV website and using their office locator tool.

2. Prepare the required documents:

  • Proof of Identity: Provide a primary identification document such as a birth certificate or a valid passport.

  • Proof of Social Security Number: This can be your Social Security card, W-2 form, or a paycheck showing your full Social Security number.

  • Proof of Residential Address: You will need two documents showing your Florida residential address. Acceptable documents include a utility bill, lease agreement, or a bank statement. (We help you with these documents)
