Current through Register Vol. 51, No. 3, September 1, 2024
RELATES TO: KRS 186.400-186.640, 281.726
NECESSITY, FUNCTION, AND CONFORMITY: KRS 186.531 requires that the license issued to a driver under the age of twenty-one (21) have an "under twenty-one (21)" designation and that the fee be prorated. This administrative regulation sets forth the license fee schedule for such licenses. This administrative regulation also includes the fee schedule for the issuance of any other license for a driver over the age of twenty-one (21) or nondriver identification card which license or identification card is valid for less than four (4) years. Administrative regulation includes the fee schedule for the issuance of any other license or nondriver identification card which is valid for less than four (4) years.
Section 1. Definitions.
Section 2. Any applicant requesting a duplicate, add-on, or other replacement license who holds a valid driver's license as defined herein, or a nondriver identification card issued prior to July 15, 1986 shall retain the original license or identification card expiration date. Any applicant requesting an original or renewal driver's license prior to his 21st birthday shall be issued a license to expire on his 21st birthday.
Section 3. Under Twenty-one (21) Applicants. The fee schedule for an applicant under the age of twenty-one (21) to obtain a driver's license or license renewal is outlined in Appendix A. Such original license or renewal expires on the licensee's 21st birthday. Pursuant to statute, the licensee has thirty (30) days after the expiration of the license in which to renew.
Section 4. Add-on Applicants. The fee schedule for an applicant who has either an operator's or motorcycle license and who is applying for a combination license is outlined in Appendix B.
Section 5. Duplicate License Applicants. The fee schedule for an applicant whose valid license has been lost or destroyed and who is applying for a duplicate and an add-on license is outlined in Appendix C. The fee for a duplicate license without an add-on or a duplicate nondriver identification card is the two (2) dollar fee set forth in KRS 186.531.
Section 6. Duplicate, Add-on, or Other Replacement License or Nondriver Identification Card. An applicant under the age of twenty-one (21), who is applying for a duplicate, an add-on or any other type of replacement or modified license, or is applying for a duplicate nondriver identification card, shall be issued an "under twenty-one (21)" license as specified in KRS 186.412. The license or non-driver identification card expiration date shall be the same as on the original license as provided by Section 2 of this administrative regulation. If the licensee or nondriver identification card holder reaches his 21st birthday prior to the expiration of that license or identification card, on or after his 21st birthday he may request a replacement license which does not have the "under twenty-one (21)" code from the circuit court clerk in his county of residence.
