An Act amending Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in licensing of drivers, further providing for duplicate and substitute drivers' licenses and learners' permits.

HB 729 eliminates fees for one duplicate Pennsylvania identification card (including required photos) during the term of an initial or renewal card for individuals already exempt from license fees under Section 1901(b.1) of the law. This directly affects Pennsylvania residents who qualify for fee exemptions (such as low-income or disabled individuals) when replacing lost or damaged ID cards. The bill amends Section 1513(c) of Title 75 (Vehicles) to prohibit charging fees for a single duplicate ID card during the active period of their primary card. The change applies only to the first duplicate replacement needed within the card's validity period.
