If you are looking to reinstate your license and this is your first DUI Conviction, and you have a six month to one suspension effective from the conviction date, you can apply for a hardship license in your county before the expiration of this revocation period.

DUI school completion and treatment is required.  After completion, you can apply for a hardship license in the Administrative Reviews department of the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).  Please click here to find your local administrative office: http://www.flhsmv.gov/offices/

If you wait to reinstate your license until your revocation period ends, you may need to have proof of enrollment or completion of a DUI school and treatment.  If you fail to complete this course within 90 days after reinstatement, it will result in cancellation of your driver’s license until the course is completed.  Again, failure to complete treatment may result in cancellation of your driver’s license.

At the time of reinstatement for hardship or full license privileges, you must take a required examination and pay an administrative fee, along with a reinstatement fee.  Any DUI conviction after October 1, 2007 must have proof of bodily injury liability insurance.
