Idaho stops nonresident commercial licenses

Beginning July 1, 2026, Idaho stops issuing “nondomiciled” and “nonresident” commercial driver licenses and commercial learner’s permits. Idaho licensing offices no longer issue or use these credentials. Drivers who relied on this Idaho path lose that option and must use another valid license or permit. Employers that accepted these Idaho credentials need to verify a different credential for drivers.
