Maryland's Graduated Licensing System

The State of Maryland's full driver's license is a privilege awarded to drivers who progress through the Rookie Driver graduated licensing system.

Requirements

  • Minimum age is 18 years and 0 months.

  • Drivers must hold a provisional license for a minimum of 18 months and be conviction-free during that period.

  • If under 21, the applicant's license and record must be alcohol-free.

  • When provisional license holders successfully meet all requirements, the MVA automatically converts the license to a full driver's license status. An attachment card showing the conversion to a full license is mailed to the driver. The card should be carried with the Provisional license to show the change in licensing status. The attachment card is no longer needed when the provisional license expires. The driver comes in for a license renewal, pays the renewal fee and then is issued a full license.

  • If a new driver under 18 is cited for a moving violation, the MVA will notify the cosigner.
