HB 3426 authorizes the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) to issue digital versions of driver's licenses, commercial driver's licenses, and personal identification certificates. The bill mandates that digital credentials be available through a secure mobile application with offline access and authentication features. It establishes a fee structure for digital credentials and ensures that displaying a digital ID does not grant law enforcement access to other device contents.
