Pennsylvania drivers whose driver’s license or photo ID has expired or is about to expire are getting a reprieve. 

PennDOT announced Friday that expiration dates for driver’s licenses, identification cards and learner’s permits will be extended for Pennsylvania residents in response to statewide COVID-19 mitigation efforts.

Effective July 23, expiration dates for driver’s licenses, photo ID cards and learner’s permits scheduled to expire from March 16 through Aug. 31 have been extended until Aug. 31. 

These extensions are in addition to those announced on June 25, which extended expiration dates for driver’s licenses, photo ID cards and learner’s permits until July 31.

According to PennDOT, A camera card is considered a driver’s license, so it is covered by the same terms and conditions extending other driver’s license products. Camera cards with expiration dates within this timeframe are also extended through Aug. 31.
