The Division of Motor Vehicles has unveiled new driver licenses, permits, and identification cards with advanced card security features to combat fraud, effective May 2024.
The new North Carolina driver’s licenses will be 100% polycarbonate card that is personalized using laser engraving technology. The card will feel stiffer and have both embossed and debossed patterns and lettering on the surface of the card. Because of its composition, the card will not only look different, it will also feel and make a unique metallic sound when dropped. 
The new card design showcases imagery familiar to North Carolinians, with hints of blue and green specifically chosen to correspond with well-known state attributes such as its rolling hills and abundant nature.
