There are two requirements to even try to seek expungement:

  • An arrest was made that did not lead to a guilty charge
  • A defendant received deferred adjudication and completed community supervision for a class C misdemeanor charge
Beyond this, the process is pretty involved and may take a while without any guaranteed outcome.

Below is an article about dwi expungement.

Regarding this particular question: Although it MAY be possible to have the record of any criminal action arising from the DUI expunged, the record of the offense will continue to exist on your DMV record as a permanent part of your drivers history. Reason being - - if the DMV record was allowed to be expunged, and you re-offended, the authorities would never be able to determine if it was your first, second, third, or subsequent offense - and charge you accordingly, therefore your DMV record remains permanant.
