| The Department of Licensing & Regulatory Authority (DLRA) is the central authority responsible for issuing and managing essential licenses for citizens across the state. These include hunting, mining, weapon, and driving licenses, each of which is carefully regulated to ensure safety, legal compliance, and public accountability. |
| DRIVER LICENSE |
| For driving licenses, DLRA works closely with PDM Driving School, whose certified driving instructors conduct official driving exams and provide professional training to ensure that all drivers meet the highest standards of competence and road safety. |
| GENERAL LICENSE |
| For general licenses such as hunting, mining, and weapon permits, DLRA collaborates with the Department of Justice (DOJ) to ensure that every application is supported by a valid No Objection Certificate (NOC). This partnership guarantees that only qualified and vetted individuals receive permission to engage in regulated activities. |
| REGULATIONS |
| Beyond issuing licenses, DLRA is responsible for maintaining all regulations, terms, and operational guidelines associated with these permits. The department continuously monitors compliance, updates rules as needed, and ensures that license holders adhere to legal and ethical standards. Through its comprehensive oversight, DLRA plays a vital role in safeguarding public safety, supporting responsible citizenship, and maintaining a transparent and well-regulated licensing system for the state. ▸ Driver License Standard Operating Procedures ▸ Hunting Licenses Information and Terms ▸ Mining Safety Certification & Use Permit Protocols ▸ Weapon License Certification & Use Permit Protocols |
