The affidavit must be dated within 30 days of the reinstatement to be honored. No exam is required, but a $35.00 fee is required to reinstate the driver license. If the affidavit is dated before the suspension date, then the suspension is deleted and no fee is required.

Write to request Form #DHSMV 73986:

If you hold a Florida license and have received a ticket in another state, they will send Florida the ticket information and it will be added to your record. You will receive points on your license if the ticket is a point-accessible violation according to Florida Statute 322.27(3).

Note: Florida law does not allow any school or program to remove points for a ticket received in another state. However, If you hold a Florida driver license and receive a ticket for a moving violation in Arizona, the state of Arizona may withhold adjudication if you complete the ADI-12.

Any unpaid ticket reported by another state will result in the suspension of your Florida license. If this has happened you must contact the county where you received the ticket and obtain a receipt with the Court seal. You must present this receipt to the DHSMV via fax (850-487-7080 which I do not recommend unless it is directed to a specific individual), or mail, or in person at any Florida Driver License Office. There will be a $47.50 reinstatement fee due if the ticket was paid after the Florida suspension date. If you are not sure if you owe the $47.50 fee or have trouble contacting the county where you received the ticket, please call 850-922-9000 or inquire at your local Driver License Office in person.

If a ticket is listed incorrectly on your Florida driving record, please contact the Customer Service Center at 850-617-2000.
