New Driver License & ID Cards On Feb. 24, 2020, the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) will begin issuing newly designed Driver License (DL), Identification (ID) and Election Identification Certificate (EIC) cards to Texans.
Features Include:Along with an updated design, the new cards will have increased security features, including being made of a polycarbonate material that is tamper resistant and difficult to reproduce, and meet the national standards set by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators.
As with the current design, the new cards will continue to feature a gold star in the upper right corner to indicate the card is REAL ID compliant. Other significant changes include moving the communication impediment identifier to the front of the card, as well as adding a disabled veteran identifier and branch of service. The current organ donor and veteran identifiers remain the same. This new design provides all information necessary for identification and verification purposes in an easy-to-read format.
