The state of Alaska follows a Graduated Driver\u2019s License (GDL) program, which means you will have to endure these three stages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Learner stage<\/li><li>Intermediate stage<\/li><li>Unrestricted stage<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You must complete all three stages to earn your Alaska driver\u2019s license.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-learner-stage\">Learner Stage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You must be at least 14 years old to begin the learner stage. This stage requires you to obtain an AK learner\u2019s permit to practice how to properly operate a motor vehicle. While you are learning to drive, you must be accompanied by a licensed driver who is at least 21 years old, and they must have attained their driver\u2019s license for at least one year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get your AK learner\u2019s permit, you need to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Apply in person<\/strong> at your local Alaska Department of Motor Vehicles (AK DMV).

Once you pay the applicable fees, you will receive your Alaska learner\u2019s permit. This permit is valid for 2 years and can only be renewed once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you reside in a rural community in Alaska, you are not required to obtain an AK learner\u2019s permit. However, it is advised that you obtain an Alaska learner\u2019s permit, so you can practice supervised driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you decide to practice supervised driving, you can apply for an Alaska learner\u2019s permit by completing the following steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Pass the Alaska written test at a Proctor near you<\/li><li>Pass the vision test at a doctor, nurse, or another qualified professional of your choice<\/li><li>Complete the Remote Alaska Application for Non-Commercial Driver\u2019s License, Instruction Permit, or Identification Card (<a href=\"http:\/\/doa.alaska.gov\/dmv\/forms\/PDFS\/D1.PDF\">Form D1<\/a>)<\/li><li>Submit original documents that verify your date of birth, social security number, and identity, and that you have parental consent (from your parent or legal guardian).<\/li><li>Pay the $15 Alaska permit fee<\/li><li>Mail your application and supporting documentation to:<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Juneau Driver Services<\/strong><br><strong>State of Alaska<\/strong><br><strong>Division of Motor Vehicles<\/strong><br><strong>P.O.

Individuals who are between 16 and 17 years old can obtain their Alaska provisional license, which allows them to operate a motor vehicle unsupervised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Alaska learner\u2019s permit comes with different restrictions. Individuals who have an Alaska provisional license are not permitted to carry non-sibling passengers under the age of 21 or drive between the hours of 1:00 AM and 5:00 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are different exceptions to these rules under certain circumstances, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>If you are accompanied by a licensed driver who is at least 21 years old<\/li><li>Driving to or from your place of employment<\/li><li>Driving within the area of your employment<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To obtain your Alaska provision license, you need to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Attain your Alaska learner\u2019s permit for at least 6 months<\/strong> (During this time, you are required to log 40 hours of behind-the-wheel training, 10 hours of night driving, or driving in poor weather.

If you are an Alaska resident of a rural community, you are permitted to use your provisional license without the usual restrictions if you use it in areas that are NOT connected to the land highway system or on daily, traffic highways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-unrestricted-stage\">Unrestricted Stage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You are eligible for the unrestricted stage once you\u2019ve attained your provisional Alaska driver\u2019s license for at least 6 months or you turned 18 years old, whichever comes first. The unrestricted driver\u2019s license stage is the stage when you earn your standard Alaska driver\u2019s license. You must visit your local Alaska DMV office and provide proof of either of the 2 options listed above and exchange your provisional license for an Alaska unrestricted license.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hooray! You now have a standard Alaska driver\u2019s license.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-obtaining-your-alaska-driver-s-license-at-the-age-of-18-or-older\">Obtaining Your Alaska Driver\u2019s License at the Age of 18 or Older<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re getting your first driver\u2019s license at the age of 18 or older, you must complete the following steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Apply for your driver\u2019s license at your local Alaska DMV<\/li><li>Complete the Driver\u2019s License, Permit, or Identification Card Transaction Application (<a href=\"http:\/\/doa.alaska.gov\/dmv\/forms\/pdfs\/D1.pdf\">Form D1<\/a>).
