    Check Your Driver's License Status

    Whenever you need or want to check the status of your driver’s license, you can order a driving record report. This record will spell out if your driver’s license is currently valid. Should your license have been revoked or suspended, the report will indicate that according to what’s on record at the DMV. This report will also show points against your license and, in some cases, information on any accidents you have had.

    Who Provides the Records

    Washington's Department of Licensing (DOL) provides driving records to individuals, employers, and others who fill out a Driving Record Request form:

    • Drivers requesting their own records
    • Employers
    • Agents for employers
    • School districts
    • Others with specific requests

    This form allows the driver to have their record sent to approved recipients for a $13 fee per record.
