Illinois to Launch Mobile IDs with Apple Wallet in 2025

Posted January 13, 2025 at 11:51pm by iClarified
The Office of the Illinois Secretary of State has announced its intention to bring driver's licenses and IDs to Apple Wallet by the end of 2025.

The office was authorized to begin developing digital IDs by HB 4592, a bill that supports the Secretary of State's commitment to modernizing its services. The office states that mobile IDs will serve as a companion, rather than a replacement, to physical cards.

The Secretary of State's office is working to bring driver's licenses and IDs in Apple Wallet to Illinois residents in the future with the goal of launching by the end of the year. This capability will enable residents to seamlessly and securely add and present their driver's licenses and state IDs in person and in apps using their iPhone or Apple Watch.


Illinois will join ten other states and territories that support IDs in Apple Wallet, including Arizona, Colorado, California, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Maryland, New Mexico, Ohio, and Puerto Rico.

The state also plans to expand support for mobile driver's licenses and IDs to additional digital wallets, such as Google Wallet for Android users, in the future.
