Chapter 6-23 Massachusetts ID Obtaining a Massachusetts ID For people who do not have a Massachusetts driver's license, the RMV can issue one of two official identification cards. The Massachusetts ID and Massachusetts Liquor ID look similar to drivers' licenses; however, they do not extend any driving privileges. These two ID cards are official forms of identity, signature, and age that are accepted in the Commonwealth. You cannot hold an ID card and a license at the same time. You may apply for a Massachusetts ID at any full service branch office of the RMV. You will be given a temporary Mass ID, valid for 30 days, at the branch, and a permanent ID will be mailed to you. Massachusetts ID Requirements * You must be at least 14 years of age; * You may not hold a valid license in any jurisdiction; * You must be a resident of Massachusetts. Fees: * There is a $25 fee for a Massachusetts ID * There is a $25 replacement fee for a lost or damaged Massachusetts ID Expirations: Massachusetts ID's expire every five (5) years. Documentation Requirements: You must have a valid social security number or an acceptable denial letter (with an acceptable visa code). 11/16 6:92http://www.massrmv.com/Portals/30/docs/21042.pdf http://www.massrmv.com/BranchMap.aspx http://www.massrmv.com/LicenseandID/VisaClassificationCodes.aspx
