Non-Domiciled CDL

Replacement

On September 29, 2025, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) published an interim final rule requiring states to pause the issuance of limited-term Commercial Driver's Licenses (CDLs) until they comply with the new rules and regulations. The State of Utah resumed issuing non-domiciled licenses on November 3, 2025.

New Expiration Date

If your current Utah Non-Domiciled CDL expires in the next six months, you are eligible to renew.

Same Expiration Date

If you do not expire in the next six months, your expiration date will remain the same as that of your current CDL.

Address Change

Must appear in person to obtain a new license within 30 days of moving.
