About Your Alaska Driver’s License

Refusal to submit to a breath or blood test or registering a blood alcohol content of .08% or higher during an arrest for driving while intoxicated in Alaska, will result in the automatic suspension of your license. You can request an administrative hearing with the Division of Motor Vehicles in an effort to keep your license, but you must petition the DMV within 7 days of the date of your arrest.

The license suspension is separate from the criminal DWI case. If you are found not guilty of DWI in court, your license will not be returned until the suspension period expires.
