Get a REAL ID in Oklahoma

Get an Oklahoma REAL ID (a card with a star in the top right corner): your first REAL ID takes one in-person visit with your identity document, two proofs of Oklahoma residency and your Social Security number, at a Service Oklahoma Licensing Office or, to upgrade an Oklahoma card if you are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, a Licensed Operator.

2. Use the REAL ID Checklist

   Service Oklahoma's online checklist shows the documents to bring and can email the list to you.

3. Go to a Licensing Office or a Licensed Operator

   You can upgrade at a Service Oklahoma Licensing and Exam location (no appointment needed: check the live wait times and check in online on the day of your visit) or at a Licensed Operator, the former tag agencies. For a State ID, Service Oklahoma recommends calling a Licensed Operator ahead to ask about availability or walk-in times. If you are under 18, a parent or legal guardian must come with you.

4. Pay and get your paper temporary

   Staff check your documents and you pay the fee. Accepted payment types vary by location: Service Oklahoma says most Licensing Offices take only credit cards, so check with your location first. You leave with a paper temporary.

5. Wait for your card

   The card typically arrives by mail within 30 days and can't be expedited. You can check its status on Navigate. Service Oklahoma recommends applying at least 4 weeks before you plan to fly, because TSA does not accept the paper temporary.

Common reasons people get turned away

• Photocopies and notarized documents are not accepted.
• Hospital birth certificates, footprint keepsakes, birth registration forms and uncertified Abstracts of Birth are not accepted.
• If your name changed, you need legal proof of every change since your identity document.
• The paper temporary is not accepted by TSA for flying; apply at least 4 weeks before you travel.
• Licensed Operators can't issue a REAL ID to non-citizens other than permanent residents; go to a Service Oklahoma Licensing Office.

Offices that issue REAL ID

Service Oklahoma says you apply for a first REAL ID in person at a Service Oklahoma Licensing Office or a Licensed Operator; Licensed Operators serve only U.S. citizens and permanent residents, and a first Oklahoma license or State ID is done at a Licensing Office. Drive Test Centers serve learner permit holders taking a drive test, so they are not listed as REAL ID locations. Agency source.
