Estimated Appointment Duration
20-30 minutes at the DPS office for new id card
A Texas identification card provides a state-issued photo ID for residents who do not drive or do not hold a driver's license. It is accepted as valid identification for banking, travel (if Real ID-compliant), voting, and age verification. The application process is similar to a driver's license but does not require any driving tests. Texas ID cards are available to residents of any age, and the fee is $16 for most applicants. Senior citizens aged 60 and older can obtain a free ID card. The appointment typically takes 20-30 minutes including document verification, photo, and fingerprint.
