North Dakota permit fees and documents
The general learner-permit page lists a $15 permit fee. The separate Drivers from Other Nations page lists a $5-per-attempt permit fee in its own fee FAQ. This is a scoped official-source discrepancy, not a replacement of the general fee.
$15 permit fee and $5 for each knowledge-test attempt.
$5 per permit attempt, with one daily attempt, as listed on the Drivers from Other Nations page.
Documents to bring
Identity evidence showing your current name, birth date and legal presence; use an original or certified copy, not a photocopy or hospital certificate., If your name differs, bring a certified marriage certificate, adoption document or court order supporting the legal change., One document showing your name and full Social Security number: Social Security card, W-2, SSA 1099, non-SSA 1099 or pay stub., Provide two current address proofs with a physical North Dakota address; a post office box does not qualify. Documents normally identify the applicant. The ID checklist linked by the learner-permit page allows a parent to supply residency documents for their child younger than 18. Accepted examples include utility bills, lease or mortgage documents, insurance and financial statements., Under 18: obtain an approved sponsor’s signature; a legal guardian supplies guardianship papers.
