How long is my grace period for an Oklahoma license renewal?
Grace period: 60 days
You have a 60-day grace period after your license expires in which you retain your driving privileges. If you are on active duty, you get 60 days from your discharge date.
After this grace period is up, you’ll face additional late renewal fees.
If you want to avoid retaking your driving test or taking a vision test, make sure you renew less than two years after the expiration date.
