Navigating Massachusetts License Requirements
The Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) issues different classes of licenses depending on the type of vehicle you wish to drive. The most common license is the Class D, which permits you to operate passenger cars, vans, and light trucks.
Special rules apply for:
International students seeking a license
Young drivers between the ages of 16 and 18 applying for a learner’s permit or junior license
At Express Documents Center, we help you understand and navigate these specific requirements, ensuring you are fully prepared for each step of the official process.
How We Support Your Licensing Journey
We are committed to helping you complete the RMV process accurately and efficiently. Our services include:
Document preparation guidance to meet state requirements
Step-by-step assistance with online applications and renewals
Checklists and reminders to help you stay on track
Ongoing support for license upgrades, replacements, or address changes
We do not bypass official procedures or tests—instead, we provide the clarity and support needed to navigate them confidently and legally.
Massachusetts Drivers License
Driving in the U.S. with an International License
If you are visiting the United States from another country, you may be able to drive using your valid foreign driver’s license for up to one year from your arrival date, as long as the license is in English and issued by a country recognized under the 1949 Road Traffic Convention.
According to the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV), this privilege applies specifically to short-term visitors. Once you establish residency in Massachusetts, you must apply for a state driver’s license to continue driving legally.

Guidance for International Students & Long-Term Visitors
If you are an international student on an F-1 or J-1 visa studying in Massachusetts for more than one year, obtaining a Massachusetts driver’s license is strongly recommended if you intend to drive. This serves as both a legal driving credential and proof of your official residency status in the Commonwealth.
When driving with a foreign license, remember to always carry:
Your valid passport
Your I-94 arrival/departure record
An International Driving Permit (IDP), if available
Please note: Certain countries, including China, are not included in the list of nations eligible for the one-year driving privilege. Residents from these countries will need to obtain a Massachusetts Driver’s License before driving in the state.
For a full list of eligible countries and detailed regulations, please review the official RMV guidelines here.
