Skip the Trip: In-Person Registration Renewals Eliminated

In an effort to further reduce customer service lines and waiting times, the DMV now requires that all vehicle registration renewals be made online or by mail. This change took effect July 13, 2009. Customers who do visit DMV service centers for registration renewals will have access to drop boxes and onsite computer kiosks. Registration renewals left in the drop box will be processed within two business days. The onsite computer kiosks will enable walk-in customers to complete and print the renewal transaction themselves.
