Non-CDL applicants and those 21 years of age or older may choose between a 4-year and an 8-year credential.
4-year credentials cost half as much as 8-year credentials.
REAL ID CDL credentials have an eight-year lifespan. CDL pricing information.
The fee to update or replace the name and/or address on a standard or REAL ID credential is $15.00. Bring only proof of your name and/or address change—no other documents are required.
Cash, check and debit/credit cards are accepted for payment. Additional fees apply for the use of debit/credit cards.
If your expiration date is at least 6 months after your application date, you may upgrade to REAL ID for $15.00. This will allow you to obtain a REAL ID credential that maintains your current credential's expiration date until you are eligible to renew it.
The chart below reflects pricing for first-time Kentucky cardholders or those eligible to renew their card (within 6 months of their current ID's expiration date).
U.S. Passports are one of many acceptable forms of REAL ID for domestic air travel and access to federal facilities. Visit
