Active Duty members possessing a valid driver license are NOT required to get a Guam Driver License.
Sailors with a driver license that will expire during their tour on Guam will only be required to obtain a Guam Driver License IF the state that issued the Driver License does not automatically extend the validity of the license because you are on active status. California is an example of this.
Dependents have 30 days upon arriving to obtain a Guam Driver License. Dependents with a valid driver license must present their license, a picture ID (other than the driver license), and the actual SSN Card (issued by Social Security Office). The dependent having all these documents will surrender their valid license (which will be returned with a hole punched at the expiration year), fill the proper forms, take their picture, and pay a fee of $5.00 for a 4 year valid Guam Driver License.

There is a $15.00 fee for the written test. There is a waiting list to take the written test. Approximate wait time, 2 weeks.

Guam is situated in a prime tropical cyclone formation area of the western Pacific and cyclones can and do occur. Typhoons can occur throughout the year but are more likely during June through December. Homes are built to be typhoon resistant and can handle the weather.

In order to increase your comfort during recovery it is recommended that you bring a generator as generators on the island are costly and hard to find when needed.
Guam law requires all civilian employees and military dependents to obtain a Guam driver's license within 30 days of arriving on Guam. If they have a current U.S. state or territory driver's license they are exempt from taking either a written examination or demonstration test but must surrender their current driver's license to obtain a Guam license. Active duty military members with a valid U.S. driver's license are not required to obtain a Guam license.
If their stay is less than 30 days they are not required to obtain a Guam driver's license. If their stay is more than 30 days, but less than 1 year, they can extend their current stateside license but must register their license with Department of Revenue and Taxation. Upon approval by Department of Revenue and Taxation, a registration fee is assessed and a Certificate of Registration is issued with the licensee's name, age and the expiration date of the certificate and the current driver's license number.
