PORT ST. JOE – The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles announces upcoming changes to your local driver license office. The state-operated driver license office, located at 130 Library Drive, Port St. Joe, FL 32456, will close its doors on June 30, 2011, at 5 p.m.

The Department will continue to serve motorists at the driver license office in Bay County, which offers renewals, replacements and reinstatements, as well as written and driving exams.

Other options are located in Bay, Calhoun and Liberty counties, run by the state and local tax collectors.  Customers may log onto www.flhsmv.gov to find more nearby office locations.

Florida now requires additional documents to obtain a new or renewed driver license or identification card. Prepare for your next visit by bringing documents to show proof of 1) identification, 2) Social Security number and 3) residential address (two items). Customers who have ever changed their names legally must bring additional documentation. To find out exactly what you need to bring with you, visit www.GatherGoGet.com.
