Nondriver ID for Voting Purposes
On June 1, 2017, the Department of Revenue implemented the provisions of HB 1631 to issue one nondriver ID at no cost to individuals who indicate they do not possess an acceptable form of personal identification to meet voter identification requirements.

- Provide documents verifying:
- Full legal name, date of birth, place of birth (see acceptable documents);
- Social security number (verbally or by presenting card); and
- Missouri residence and mailing address, if different.
