Kentucky driver's licenses, permits, or IDs that expire on or after July 7 will no longer receive a 90-day renewal date extension. Citizens will be responsible for renewing their card with their local circuit court clerk office by the expiration date in order for it to be considered valid.
Cards with an expiration date between March 18 and July 6 are still under the emergency order that provides a 90-day extension to the card's printed expiration date.
The remote renewal process has been extended through September 30. Any individual whose operator's license, permit, or identification card expires or is lost during the period from March 1 through September 30 must apply through a remote application process with the circuit court clerk in his/her county of residence. The applicant must not require any testing when requesting a card renewal or replacement. More information about the application process is available on the Administrative Office of the Courts website, which can be found at the link below.
"This order clearly defines the end of the grace period for expired credentials and supports safe ways Kentuckians with looming expiration dates can maintain valid credentials and documentation that keep them on the move," said Gov. Beshear. "With the gradual reopening of government services, the original intentions of the 90-day extension have been fulfilled as more and more offices resume operations."
The grace period for all vehicle and vessel registrations or disabled parking placards administered by county clerks or the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet will continue with no penalties charged through October 6, 2020. If a vehicle or vessel owner with expired registration does not renew by this date, they will be subject to late fees.
