Bill seeks to extend Guam driver's license validity from 3 to 8 years
Pacific Daily News | Sep 25, 2023
Sen. Roy Quinata on Monday introduced a bill seeking to extend the validity of the Guam driver’s license from three years to eight years, to align with the maximum renewal period allowed under the federal REAL ID Act.
The REAL ID Act enhances the security and integrity of identification documents used for various purposes, including air travel and access to federal facilities.
Bill 174-37, co-sponsored by nine senators, would streamline the driver’s license renewal process, Quinata said.
The bipartisan bill also aims to improve the efficiency and convenience of the island’s driver licensing system.
Speaker Therese M. Terlaje, Vice Speaker Tina Rose Muña Barnes, and Sens. Joe S. San Agustin, Sabina F. Perez, Chris Barnett, Dwayne T.D. San Nicolas, Amanda L. Shelton, William A. Parkinson, and Thomas J. Fisher co-sponsored the bipartisan bill.
