AB 626 Wisconsin Assembly · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: electronic copies of operators’ licenses and identification cards. (FE)

AB 626 allows drivers and ID card holders to obtain electronic copies of their licenses and identification cards from the state department. It permits displaying these electronic copies on phones or devices during traffic stops, while ensuring officers cannot view other phone content. The bill adds a $10 fee for electronic copies (separate from standard card fees) and clarifies that physical copies remain subject to different fee rules. This directly affects drivers who choose electronic formats and the state department managing license issuance.
