What a license office does

  • The Missouri Department of Revenue says you can apply for a REAL ID-compliant driver license or nondriver ID card at one of its more than 170 license office locations.
  • License office processing fees are separate from the transaction fee: on a first REAL ID duplicate they are not waived and are $9 or $18.
  • The Department's Buying a Vehicle page says to take your documents to any Missouri license office to transfer license plates or buy new ones.
  • The Department's driver license FAQ says written, vision and road sign recognition tests for a permit are taken at a State Highway Patrol examination station first, then you apply and pay at a license office.
