Non-Domiciled CDL Integrity Act

The "Non-Domiciled CDL Integrity Act" amends federal law to establish revised requirements for states issuing commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) to individuals not domiciled within that state. It clarifies that states generally issue CDLs only to residents, but allows exceptions for those domiciled in foreign jurisdictions under specific conditions. For most foreign applicants, this requires possessing lawful immigration status and an employment-based visa directly connected to the CDL, with licenses valid for up to one year or the duration of their authorized stay. Applicants from U.S. territories must provide proof of United States citizenship or lawful permanent resident status . In all such cases, states must verify the applicant's status before issuance or renewal and retain records for at least two years, providing them to the Secretary upon request.
