Payment Plan for Reinstatement Fees

To qualify for the installment plan, a driver must owe more than $75 in reinstatement fees and satisfy all other requirements needed for reinstatement.

• A Department of Safety and Homeland Security, TDOSHS, payment plan for reinstatement fees can be established by mail-in request or in person at any Driver Services Center.
• The driver is required to make a down payment of $25 (administrative fee) at the time they enter a payment plan.  They must make a payment each quarter (every 3 months) of $75 until the remaining balance is paid over a 60-month period.
• Any person whose license is revoked or suspended during a payment plan may request to modify the existing payment plan which is in good standing to include the additional reinstatement fees for the additional revocation, suspension, or cancellation.  

Any person with a defaulted payment plan may request to enter a new plan for the defaulted balance and may include additional reinstatement fees added since the last reinstatement.
