The new license will be available Wednesday, but residents are not required to obtain the new license before their old one expires. The cost will still be $20.
The new license has added security features including a digital watermark, a hologram, improved dual-side lamination and bank note-level fine line printing.
“The new licenses are the manifestation of Kentucky’s efforts to improve the level of service provided to our customers, in addition to securing a credential Kentuckians use each day,” Tom Zawacki, Kentucky Transportation Cabinet Department of Vehicle Regulation commissioner, said in a press release.
