I'm having trouble finding any state where a standard drivers license currently requires being fingerprinted. Texas did it for a little while but stopped in 2015. Some specialty licenses require it, like a commercial license to carry hazardous materials.
- pb7 5y ago"REAL ID" requires fingerprints, which will soon be required to fly.
- extra88 5y ago"Soon" being May 3, 2023 at the moment. I've lost count how many times the requirement for Real ID to fly has been delayed. So far, searches haven't turned up authoritative information (on a current, relevant federal or state sites) on Real ID requiring any biometrics. I believe it, I just haven't found an official source confirming it.
