Houston SR22 Requirements
Texas Requires SR22 for 2 Years After a DWI
Texas ranks second nationally for fatal drunk driving crashes. Harris County — home to Houston — consistently leads Texas in total DWI arrests and alcohol-related crashes.
Houston DWI cases run on two parallel tracks: an ALR (Administrative License Revocation) proceeding through Texas DPS, and the criminal case in Harris County court. You have only 15 days from your arrest to request an ALR hearing — missing it means automatic suspension.
Filing in Houston: Texas SR22 is filed as a Financial Responsibility Insurance Certificate with Texas DPS. No state filing fee beyond the reinstatement fees. Texas also uses SR22A for at-fault uninsured accidents.

Texas requires SR22 to be maintained for 2 years from the conviction date. Reinstatement requires a $125 fee to Texas DPS plus SR22. For DWI convictions, an additional $100 DWI surcharge applies. Houston area drivers dealing with Harris County courts can find the process moves quickly — SR22 filing should happen immediately after conviction.

Houston SR22 Questions
Houston SR22 FAQ
How long do I need SR22 after a DWI in Houston?
Houston drivers are subject to Texas's 2-year SR22 requirement from the date of reinstatement. The clock restarts if your coverage lapses at any point during this period.
Who files the SR22 with Texas on my behalf?
Your insurance carrier files the SR22 electronically with Texas DPS (Department of Public Safety). You don't mail anything. We confirm the filing is received before ending your call.
Can I get SR22 in Houston without a vehicle?
Yes — a non-owner SR22 policy satisfies Texas's filing requirement even without a car. It's typically the lowest-cost SR22 option and can be bound the same day you call. See our non-owner SR22 page for details.
What happens if my SR22 lapses in Houston?
Your carrier immediately notifies Texas DPS (Department of Public Safety). Your license is re-suspended and your 2-year requirement period restarts from zero. Continuous coverage throughout the full period is critical.
Can I get SR22 same day in Houston?
Yes — we file electronically with Texas the same day you call. Call before 3pm and in most cases your SR22 is filed and confirmed the same business day.
