    Top When to Renew

    If you hold a valid Minnesota CDL, you may renew it at any time. Minnesota CDLs expire four years from your birthday of the year that you renew.

    You should receive a renewal notice at least 60 days before your license expires. The notice is sent to the address on file with the Minnesota Driver and Vehicle Services (DVS), so be sure your current address is the one the DVS has. Minnesota law requires you to apply for a duplicate CDL within 30 days if your address changes.

    If you do not receive a renewal notice, you must still comply with state and federal commercial driving regulations to renew your CDL in Minnesota.

    Top How to Renew

    To renew a Minnesota CDL with Hazardous Materials Endorsement (HME), you must pass the HME knowledge test. You may also be required to have a new physical exam.

    If your Minnesota CDL with HME is expiring before before the 30 days required for fingerprinting, you can renew your CDL, but it will not have the HME until the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) processes the prints. This prohibits transport of hazardous material loads until HME is renewed.

    If you have questions about renewing your CDL, which must be done at a Minnesota DVS location, you may contact the department by email at drivers.license@state.mn.us, or by phone at (651) 297-5029.
