In addition to existing services like driver’s license/ID renewal, vehicle registration renewal, and massage therapy and instructor license renewal, new services now available on TxT include:
- Driver’s license upgrade. Offered in collaboration with the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS), Texans can upgrade from a learner license to a provisional driver license on TxT following the successful completion of their driving skills test with a participating driving school. Notably, this brings a previously in-person only service online and expands access to a new generation of Texans, allowing those 16-18 years old to create a limited-access TxT account and complete their driver’s license upgrade.
- Boat registration renewal. Offered in collaboration with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD), Texans can link and manage boats on their TxT account, as well as renew boat registrations, order additional ID cards, and replace lost registration decals or ID cards. This service welcomes a new state agency to the platform and enables the state’s large boating community to enjoy the ease and convenience that TxT delivers.
In terms of ease and convenience, TxT currently has a 93% satisfaction rating among users and regularly receives positive feedback from Texans across the state:
- “Really impressive! It’s a long overdue update to our state’s digital services and a fantastic experience all around.”
- “TxT works perfectly. Quite frankly, the state isn’t supposed to be this efficient. Well done, Texas!”
- “Life changer. I don’t know what I ever did before.”
- “This system worked beautifully. Thank you for a government service that’s efficient and helps people.”
The TxT platform was developed and is operated by Deloitte in collaboration with DIR and participating state agency stakeholders. For more information about TxT, visit www.texas.gov/TxT.
