(1) Lost, stolen or destroyed license. To replace a valid license that is lost, stolen or destroyed, the licensee shall provide the licensee's full legal name, date of birth, and social security number, all of which must be verified by the department, and pay the replacement fee. A licensee subject to 761-paragraph 601.5(2)"b" shall provide the applicant's U.S. Customs and Immigration Services number, which must be verified by the department. The department may investigate or require additional information as may be reasonably necessary to determine that the licensee's identity matches the identity of record and shall not issue the replacement license if the licensee's identity is questionable, cannot be determined, or otherwise does not match the identity of record. If the licensee's current residential address, name, date of birth, or sex designation has changed since the previous license was issued, the licensee shall comply with subrule 605.11(2).

(2) Voluntary replacement. The department shall issue a duplicate of a valid license to an eligible licensee if the license is surrendered to the department and the replacement fee is paid. Voluntary replacement includes but is not limited to:

a. Replacement of a damaged license.

b. Replacement to change the current residential address on a license. The licensee shall notify the department to establish the current residential address.

g. Issuance of a license without the words "under 18" to a licensee who is 18 years of age or older.

h. Issuance of a noncommercial driver's license to an eligible person who has been disqualified from operating a commercial motor vehicle.

i. Replacement of a valid license before its expiration date to obtain a license that may be accepted for federal identification purposes under 6 CFR Part 37 (a REAL ID license). The licensee shall comply with the requirements of 761-601.5(321) to obtain a REAL ID license.

j. Replacement to add a veteran designation to the license. Tobe eligible for a veteran designation, the licensee must comply with the requirements of paragraph 605.5(7)"e."

(3) Replacement upon attaining the age of 21. A licensee, upon attaining the age of 21, who is otherwise eligible for a driver's license is eligible to electronically apply for a replacement driver's license under this rule for the unexpired months of the license, regardless of whether the most recent issuance occurred electronically.

a. Except for the requirements in subparagraphs 605.25(7)"a"(1) and 605.25(7)"a"(2), the licensee must meet the eligibility requirements listed in paragraph 605.25(7)"a" or paragraph 605.25(8)"a" to replace the license electronically and must also meet the following criteria:

(1) The licensee must be at least 21 years old.

(2) The licensee must currently hold a driver's license marked "Under 21" as provided in Iowa Code section 321.189.

b. Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter to the contrary, the department may accept an electronic replacement application if the licensee seeks replacement of a special instruction permit or a license with a single "J" restriction accompanied by a "9" restriction.

(4) Fee. The fee to replace a license is $10.

This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 321.13, 321.189, 321.195 and 321.208, the REAL ID Act of 2005 (49 U.S.C. Section 30301 note), and 6 CFR Part 37 .
