Replacing a Lost Nevada Drivers License or ID

Losing your driver’s license is stressful. Especially if you think the license was stolen. Below, we here at Aceable explain how to protect yourself from fraud in the case of theft as well as how to replace the driver's license or ID card.

If you believe that your driver’s license was stolen the very first thing you should do is report the stolen license to the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) as well to the local authorities. This will help to fight off identity theft and other types of fraud. If you have had your driver’s license stolen, your wallet and its contents may have been stolen as well. In this case, call your bank(s) and have them cancel your cards to prevent any fraudulent charges. Doing this will reduce the chance for fraud and greatly reduce any problems that arise from the theft.

Luckily in the state of Nevada replacing your driver’s license (or ID) is easy and there are multiple ways to do it! You can go through the Nevada DMW website and request the ID there. You can also go in person and request a replacement at a DMV kiosk or at the DMW office.
