If your Ohio driver's license or identification card has been lost, stolen, or mutilated, you can apply for a replacement or duplicate license at your local Office of Motor Vehicles.

Instructions for replacing a lost, stolen or mutilated Louisiana driver's license or identification card:

1. Locate the Ohio Office of Motor Vehicles here. Be sure to note the days and hours of operation.
2. Bring proper identification. The state of Ohio requires that you present one piece of primary ID and one piece of secondary ID when applying for a duplicate driver's license or identification card, to satisfactorily prove the Name, Date of Birth and the Social Security Number. Persons under the age of 18 must bring their certified birth certificate, one piece of secondary ID, and be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian with a documentary proof of identification.
3. Bring the correct fee. Normally, there is a $19.50 fee for replacing a lost, stolen, or mutilated license. Credit cards are not accepted. Please contact your nearest you to confirm the fee before applying in person, since fees may vary.

Instructions for Ohio residents who are temporarily out of state: Ohio residents who are temporarily out of state and unable to apply in person may be able to apply for a duplicate license or identification card through the mail. Such persons may include military personnel or students who are either out of the state or country, among others. Please call the Ohio Driver's License Division at (614) 752-7600 for more information.

Additional Information

• If your license or identification will expire within the next 90 days, you can apply for renewal instead of a replacement.
• You cannot apply for a replacement driver's license or identification online.
