  • The Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) also will be onsite to provide parents an opportunity to obtain child IDs (for children under the age of 15). Parents should bring their own photo ID and their child’s birth certificate. The DMV charges $10 per ID. In addition to serving as an identity document, the child’s photograph is stored in DMV’s database. If the child becomes missing, DMV can retrieve the image from the database and transmit it to law enforcement anywhere in the United States.
