How do I check if my Georgia driver’s license is suspended?
I often get the question of whether a person has a driver’s license that is suspended. A client may have missed court and has a Failure to Appear or might be uncertain about whether they have satisfied all requirements to get a license back while already serving a suspension. This query is easily explored by calling the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) at (404) 657-9300. You can call this DDS Contact Center and follow the prompts. You will need your driver’s license number to provide to the automated service to easily learn whether your Georgia license is valid or invalid.
Alternatively, you can visit DDS Online Services and provide your driver’s license number on the website as well.
If you have a question on whether your license is valid it is important to look into this question because most law enforcement agencies in Georgia have the policy to arrest individuals when Driving on a Suspended License pursuant to O.C.G.A. 40-5-121. Further, if suspended you can start taking active steps to correct the suspension(s).
