Can i see if my license is suspended online

There are several ways to find out if your license is suspended in Texas. However, when the police pull you over for driving while intoxicated, your license is suspended automatically. If the Texas Department of Public Safety (TxDPS) upholds the suspension, it will notify you by mailing a notice to the address it has on file for you.

If you did not get this notice or wonder if your suspension has ended, it offers other ways to check on your driving privileges. These methods include online, through email, over the phone, or in person.

Check Online for Information About Your Driver’s License

TxDPS offers an online eligibility database where you can check to see if the agency has suspended your license or if your suspension is over. To gain access to your file, you will need:

• Your driver’s license or ID number
• Your birthdate
• The last four digits of your Social Security number

In addition to finding out if your license has a current suspension, you can also find out the reinstatement requirements and any necessary fees by logging in online.

Contact TxDPS Electronically, By Phone, or In Person

TxDPS offers ways to contact someone in its customer service department, either via email or by phone. You can contact TxDPS electronically through its Driver’s License Customer Service online form.

Alternatively, you can reach the customer service department by phone at 512-424-2600. You can also visit your local TxDPS office, and they can help you learn more about your driver’s license eligibility.

Understanding Texas License Suspensions After a Drunk Driving Arrest

If you are convicted for DWI, you may have two separate license suspensions on your record. One is the legal penalty resulting from your criminal conviction. The other is an Administrative License Revocation (ALR).

The ALR occurs no matter if you get convicted of DWI or not. You only have 15 days after your arrest to appeal this revocation, and it will begin on the 40th day unless you win your appeal.
