If you are an Alaska resident service member or spouse stationed outside Alaska, you can renew your standard Alaska non-commercial driver license remotely instead of returning to the state. This applies only to standard licenses, not REAL ID licenses, and the fee is $20. Dependent children cannot use it.
Submit the completed driver license, permit or ID card transaction application and all your documentation online through the myAlaska webpage. You will be emailed an electronic invoice for the $20 fee.
The completed transaction application, two forms of identification such as your expiring card, passport or birth certificate, a copy of your military orders showing the deployment date, return date and overseas area, a copy of a Leave and Earnings Statement listing Alaska as your state of residence, verification of legal presence if you are not a U.S. citizen, an eye examination and physician or optometrist assessment dated within the last six months showing corrected vision of at least 20/40 in both eyes, and proof of your relationship to the service member if you are the spouse.
