If your DC DMV CDL has been damaged, lost, or stolen, you can obtain a duplicate. DC DMV offers duplicate CDLs online—if the CDL you are replacing is a current, federally compliant DC DMV CDL—or in-person at the Deanwood Commercial Driver License Center if it is not. The online system for obtaining a duplicate DC DMV CDL is available at the link below:

If you are obtaining a non-federally compliant CDL in person, you will have to provide proof of identity, proof of Social Security number and two proofs of DC residency. You will need to bring original documents. DC DMV cannot accept photocopies or scanned documents. Information on these proofs is available at the links below:
- CDL Proof of Identity
- REAL ID Proof of Social Security Number
- Proof of Current District of Columbia Residency
You must also bring a completed commercial driver license application, which is available at the link below:
You will also have to pay the appropriate duplicate fees. Information on DC DMV fees is available at the link below:
