Veteran Designation on Driver’s License or ID Cards

Starting in November 2012, the New Mexico MVD has provided a way for veterans to be acknowledged  on their Driver’s Licenses and ID’s.

  • The veteran’s designation can be added at no additional cost during a first-time issuance or renewal. You only pay for your credential.
  • If just adding designation, customer must pay regular replacement cost depending on 4 or 8 years
  • Just need to provide either a DD214 or Veteran’s Card
  • Customer does not need to show DD214 or Veteran’s Card on subsequent visits
  • Can be removed on later replacement or renewal
