Paying a Virginia Speeding Ticket While Deployed to Iraq

If you lost your citation during deployment, follow these steps:

1. Contact the court that issued the ticket; explain deployment and lost citation. Ask about phone/mail/online payment.
2. Request a duplicate citation – Provide full name, DOB, license number, violation date.
3. Pay online – Many VA courts accept e-payment via their website with citation/license details.
4. Pay by mail – Send check/money order to court address with identifying info.
5. Pay in person – If stateside, visit clerk's office with ID and payment.
6. Request an extension – Deployment hardship may qualify for a payment plan or deadline extension.

Act before the due date to avoid added penalties or license suspension.
