Missouri Driving Record

A Missouri driving record — often called an MVR, or motor vehicle record — is the Department of Revenue's official history of a licensed driver: licence class and status, endorsements and restrictions, convictions, accidents, suspensions and revocations. This page covers what is on the record, what it costs, how to order one, how Missouri's point system works, and who is legally allowed to pull a record that isn't their own.

The short version: the state charges $2.82 online and $3.82–$4.82 at a licence office. We charge $2.00 per record, delivered as a PDF in the state's own format with BAC levels included, in minutes — against $15.95 and $16.88 at the nearest commercial providers. See full pricing.

What's on a Missouri driving record

A Missouri MVR pulled from the Department of Revenue shows:

Records with and without personal information

Missouri splits driver records into two kinds, and the difference decides who is allowed to order one.

Without personal information

Contains the driving history alone — violations, accidents and licence actions — with no identifying details attached. Anyone may request this record. It is the version available to the general public.

With personal information

Adds the driver's name, address, date of birth, sex, height, weight, eye colour, driver licence number, Social Security number, photograph, telephone number, and medical or disability information including restrictions.

Only three parties can obtain this version: the record holder, anyone with the record holder's express consent, or a requester who qualifies under a DPPA exemption (see below). Photographs, Social Security numbers and medical information are restricted further still — to government agencies, court proceedings, insurers handling claims, antifraud, rating or underwriting, and employers verifying a CDL holder.

How to order a Missouri driving record

Online through the state's MyDMV

The Department of Revenue sells records through its MyDMV portal at $2.82, paid at submission, with a valid email address required. Businesses making frequent requests must first establish a MyDMV profile and obtain a security access code — see the employers section below.

In person at a Missouri licence office

Bring photo identification for your own record, or a completed, notarised Form 4681 for someone else's. A $2.00 office processing fee applies on top of the record fee.

By mail, fax or email

Submit Form 4681, Request from Driver License Record Holder, with a notarised signature. Records transmitted back by fax carry a $0.50 per page fax fee. Every Missouri DOR form, including 4681, is listed on our forms and manuals page.

What a Missouri driving record costs

Two things drive the price: what the state charges, and what a provider adds on top. Here is the whole picture as published in August 2026.

For volume, batch processing runs at $2.00 per record across up to 500 records per submission, with the limit raised to fit your volume, a $100 batch minimum, an upfront quote, and charges only for records that return a match. Any card processing fees are disclosed at checkout.

How the Missouri point system works

Missouri assesses points against a driver's record on conviction. The values are set by RSMo 302.302, and they are lower for municipal and county ordinance convictions than for the equivalent state-law offence.

What triggers a suspension or revocation

How points come off

Points are reduced on a schedule after reinstatement: one third of the remaining total comes off after one year, one half of what remains after two years, and the balance drops to zero at three years. Note that reaching zero points does not clear the underlying convictions from the record.

A driver may also avoid points by completing a driver-improvement program or motorcycle-rider training course within sixty days, where a court or the Fine Collections Center authorises it. This can be used only once in any thirty-six-month period.

How long violations stay on a Missouri driving record

Points and convictions are two different things, and they age off differently.

This matters for employers: a three-year MVR and a full record are not the same document, and a driver whose points have reduced to zero can still carry reportable convictions.

Who can legally pull a Missouri driving record

Access to records containing personal information is governed by the federal Driver's Privacy Protection Act. Missouri recognises thirteen permissible-use exemptions:

  1. Government agencies carrying out their functions
  2. Courts and court employees
  3. Law enforcement agencies
  4. Motor vehicle and driver safety, theft, emissions and recall purposes
  5. Legitimate business verification of accuracy, fraud prevention, or debt collection
  6. Civil, criminal, administrative or arbitral proceedings
  7. Research and statistical reporting, with no redisclosure
  8. Insurers for claims investigation, antifraud, rating and underwriting
  9. Notifying owners of towed or impounded vehicles
  10. Licensed private investigators and security services
  11. Employers and their agents verifying commercial driver licence information
  12. Private toll facility operators
  13. Media disseminating public communication about vehicle operation and safety

Certifying a permissible purpose is not a formality. Every account we open certifies its purpose at registration and again at each submission, and every request is logged and auditable.

For employers, insurers, attorneys and investigators

Most people ordering a Missouri MVR aren't ordering their own. If you pull records as part of hiring, fleet safety, underwriting or a case file, three things are worth knowing. Our Missouri MVR guide for employers sets out the federal and state requirements in full.

The security access code

Businesses making frequent requests directly through the state must establish a MyDMV profile and obtain a security access code from the Department of Revenue, applying with Form 4678, Request for Security Access Code. Ordering through us skips that process — permissible purpose is certified on your account instead.

Running records in volume

Pulling a fleet one driver at a time does not scale. Batch processing takes a CSV or spreadsheet of licence numbers, or names with dates of birth, matches nickname variants like Bill and William, quotes the job upfront, and charges only for records that come back matched. An API is available for pulling records directly into your own system.

Monitoring instead of pulling annually

An annual MVR tells you what a driver looked like on one day last year. Our Missouri licence monitoring program tracks your uploaded drivers daily and flags status changes, new convictions and CDL medical certification expiries as they happen — which is what prevents a downgrade or a suspended driver staying on the road between pulls. See services.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Missouri driving record cost?

The Missouri Department of Revenue charges $2.82 online, or $3.82–$4.82 on average at a licence office once the $2.00 processing fee is added, and $0.50 per page if the record is faxed. MissouriMVR charges $2.00 per record, with no setup fee and no monthly minimum. Commercial providers charge considerably more: $15.95 at MVRcheck and $16.88 plus a $20.00 setup fee at MVROnline.

How long does it take to get a Missouri driving record?

Ordered through us, minutes — the PDF is generated on request. Through the state, online delivery is prompt, but mail, fax and email requests require a notarised Form 4681 first, which is what takes the time.

Can my employer pull my Missouri driving record?

An employer or its agent may obtain a record containing personal information where it qualifies under a DPPA exemption — most commonly verifying commercial driver licence information — or where you have given express consent. Employers routinely obtain consent as part of the hiring process.

How long do points stay on a Missouri licence?

Points reduce by one third after one year, by one half of the remainder after two years, and to zero at three years following reinstatement. The convictions themselves last longer: three years for most, five years from reinstatement where the conviction caused a suspension or revocation, and permanently for certain types.

What is the difference between a driving record and an MVR?

Nothing. MVR — motor vehicle record — is the term used in employment screening, insurance and fleet compliance. Missouri's Department of Revenue calls the same document a driver record.

Do I need a permissible purpose to pull someone else's record?

For a record containing personal information, yes — either the driver's express consent or a qualifying DPPA exemption. A record without personal information carries no such restriction and may be requested by anyone.

Can I get Missouri vehicle records too?

Yes. Vehicle, title and registration records are priced the same as driver records and can be run in the same batch. See services.

How do I correct an error on my Missouri driving record?

Corrections are handled by the Missouri Department of Revenue, not by a records provider. Start with the Driver Record contact information on the DOR's driver records page, and expect to supply court documentation for a disputed conviction.
