Replace a lost or stolen license

3 quick questions. Then you'll know if you can do it online, or exactly what to bring.

Question 1 of 3

  1. 1Do you want to switch to REAL ID or Enhanced at the same time?
  2. 2Have you moved since the license was issued?

    NY DMV asks you to change your address first, then order the replacement.

  3. 3Was it stolen, or lost in a crime?

    A police report on form MV-78B makes the replacement free.
