How to Restore Your Georgia License After a No-Insurance Suspension
The short answer
These are the steps the Georgia agency lists to restore a license after a suspension for no insurance. The state's reinstatement fees are $200 to $310, depending on the suspension. Whether an SR-22 is also required depends on your case.
Steps listed by the Georgia agency
- 1st offense: the license must be suspended for 60 days to be eligible.
- Show proof of insurance (1st offense); for a 2nd or later offense present a Georgia SR-22A (insurer may fax it to DDS) and maintain it for 3 years.
- Pay the reinstatement fee: $200 by mail or online / $210 in person (1st offense); $300 / $310 (2nd or later).
- Pay by mail, online through DDS Online Services, or in person at a DDS Customer Service Center.

Need to drive to work while suspended? The state offers a Limited driving permit. Many states limit these licenses to certain suspensions, such as DUI cases, so check that it covers yours.
