If you are on active duty the military extension validates your existing Vermont Driver's License for up to four (4) years from the date it would normally expire. While it is necessary for the Department to send notice of all expiring licenses, such notice may be disregarded by you if you have obtained a military extension.
Your Vermont license must be renewed within thirty (30) days of your discharge date. To renew this extended license, you must do the following:
- Complete and submit a Vermont License Renewal Application,
- Provide proof of continuous active service (since the expiration date showing on the Vermont license currently in your possession),
- Submit a statement on Armed Forces letterhead, signed by a commissioned officer (other than yourself), or a copy of your discharge papers,
