Anatomical Gifts

Registering to become an Organ, Tissue and Eye Donor

Anatomical Gifts

Ohio law requires that Living Wills created after December 15, 2004, must include a person’s

preferences about Anatomical Gifts (organ and tissue donation). The Living Will form included

in this booklet has the required section and also provides instructions for registering your wishes

with the Bureau of Motor Vehicles. Living Wills completed before December 16, 2004, that do not

include the Anatomical Gifts (organ and tissue donation) section are still valid and will be honored

in Ohio. If you have previously completed an approved Donor Registry Enrollment Form or made

the afﬁ rmation when renewing your driver license or state identiﬁ cation card, then you have given

consent for your organs, tissue, and/or eyes, if usable, to be removed upon your death. The revised

Living Will form allows you to be speciﬁ c regarding the type(s) of organ/tissue you wish to donate

and for what purposes.

How Do I Register to Become a Donor?

There are two ways to register:

1. When you obtain or renew your Ohio Driver License or State I.D. Card, you will be asked,

“Do you want to make an anatomical gift?” By answering “yes,” your name will be added to

Ohio’s Donor Registry. This authorizes the use of any of your usable organs, tissues or eyes

for any purposes authorized by law; you are not agreeing to donate your entire body. If your

name is in the registry, donation will move forward at the time of your death.

2. If you wish to join the registry at a time other than when you renew your license or State I.D.

Card, or if you wish to reﬁ ne or change your donation consent, you must either:

A. Go to and click the Donate Life icon to access and complete the

online registry form.

B. Complete the Donor Registry Enrollment Form that is attached to the Ohio Living Will

form and return it to Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles, Attn: Record Clearance Unit, P.O.

Box 16583, Columbus, OH 43216-6583.

Through both the online and the paper form, you can specify the organs or tissues you wish to

donate, and the speciﬁ c purposes for which they can be used. You can use the enrollment form to

become a donor, even if you have neither a driver’s license nor a state-issued identiﬁ cation card, by

providing your Social Security number on the enrollment form.

In addition to registering your intent to become a donor, you should discuss your wishes with your

family.
