Palm Beach County Residents can now schedule appointments to obtain or renew their identification cards at the Palm Beach County’s department of motor vehicles. This new service aims to streamline the process of obtaining identification cards while also ensuring the safety and convenience of residents during the ongoing pandemic.
In a statement released by Palm Beach County officials, they announced the launch of the appointment system for identification cards.

We encourage all residents in need of identification cards to utilize this new system and make their appointment today.”
In addition to the appointment system, Palm Beach County officials have also implemented safety measures at all department of motor vehicles offices. These measures include mandatory mask-wearing, temperature checks upon entry, and hand sanitizing stations throughout the offices. By adhering to these safety protocols, Palm Beach County officials hope to provide a safe and secure environment for residents seeking identification cards.
“We are fully committed to the safety and well-being of our residents and staff,” said Palm Beach County Director of Public Health, Dr. Lisa Lewis. “With the launch of the appointment system for identification cards, we are taking a proactive approach to ensure the safety of all individuals who visit our department of motor vehicles offices. We urge residents to comply with all safety measures in place and work together to prevent the spread of COVID-19.”
