Getting a Florida drivers license?

I will be in Florida for a little while staying with friend and I wanted to know if it will be possible to get my drivers license transferred to a Florida drivers License or an ID? Or do I have to have a SS # before these things can be done?|||If you already have a drivers license from another state, you simply surrender your other state's drivers license to the Florida DMV and they will issue you a new Florida DL upon completion of a vision test and a written drivers test. If you have never had a drivers license in any state, then you will need to bring a social security card and birth certificate and you will be required to take both a written and physical driving test as well as a vision test.|||If you don't have a social security number, then you are not a legal citizen of the USA, and you can't get a driver's license in Florida. If you are a legal visitor from another country and already have a valid driver's license from your home country, then you can use that here in the States for the duration of your visit.





If you are not legally here, then go home. Come back when you can do it in accordance with the laws of the United States.|||Well most of the answers are correct. By you saying you have no social I am guessing you are from another country? Bring all your current immigration docs (passport, I20, Receipt Notice, etc) to the dmv along with 2 proofs of address, which can be the friend you live with and a statement from your friend stating you guess stay together. You can get a lic if you have an out of country lic or have taken the 4 hour drug and alcohol class. If you want just an ID you can as long as you surrender all US ID's if you have one plus Immigrations docs. Hope that helps|||If you are a resident of Florida you can transfer a valid license from another state to Florida. If you are a tourist, your valid license is all you need. "A little while" and "staying with a friend" seems to indicate you are a tourist, not a resident of the state of Florida.
