Summary

When a person applies for or renews a driver’s license in Tennessee, staff must ask whether they want a license that meets the federal REAL ID standards or one that does not. The applicant receives a printed form listing document requirements, uses, alternative IDs, and technology differences, and must sign to indicate their choice. The law also mandates the DMV website to state that a REAL ID is optional.
