How to Restore Your Maine License After a No-Insurance Suspension

Last checked · Sources listed below

The short answer

These are the steps the Maine agency lists to restore a license after a suspension for no insurance. The state's reinstatement fee is $50. Whether an SR-22 is also required depends on your case.

Steps listed by the Maine agency

  1. Have an insurance company file the SR-22 certificate of insurance with the BMV (SR-22 filings go through tylerinsurancefilings.com).
  2. Pay all reinstatement fees, fines and court fees before the license can be reinstated.
  3. Pay the $50 reinstatement fee at any branch office, by phone, or online ($5 processing fee for online payments; not at mobile units).
  4. For SR-22, judgment suspension or uninsured accident questions, contact BMV Driver License Services at 207-624-9000 ext. 52108.

Check your status first

Check your license status or reinstatement requirements on the state's own website before you pay anything.

Check status with the state

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