Renewing an Expired Driver’s License in Montana
Forgot to renew your driver’s license? You’re not alone—and you’re not out of luck. At MVD Express, we make renewing your expired Montana driver’s license quick and simple, so you can get back on the road legally and avoid unnecessary fines or penalties.
Your Montana license is valid for up to eight years, which makes it easy to forget the expiration date. While you have six months before and three months after the expiration to renew your license, your driving privileges expire at midnight on the date listed on the card. If you're pulled over with an expired license, you could face costly penalties.

When you visit MVD Express to renew your non-commercial driver’s license, be sure to bring:

- Proof of identity (if you do not have your expiring license)
- Legal documentation of a name change, if applicable
- Payment for the renewal and MVD Express convenience fee (cash, check, or credit card)
We’re here to walk you through the process and get you on your way—quickly and stress-free.
