District of Columbia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) continues to be a model agency in terms of providing alternative channels for service delivery. Our latest online enhancement allows residents to change their address and “skip the trip” by not visiting a service center. Residents are required to update changes in address within 5 days to keep their records current. The online change of address transaction will allow residents to update their address for their driver license, identification card, and/or vehicle(s) registered in the District of Columbia. Residents can also complete a change of address when renewing their driver license, identification card, and/or vehicle(s) registration during the renewal online transactions.

All DC DMV locations will be closed in observance of Labor Day on Saturday, September 5 and Monday, September 7.
On February 5, the Georgetown DMV Service Center experienced a significant water main break. Due to flooding impacts, the Georgetown DMV Service Center will remain closed to the public until further notice. DC DMV's services will remain available at our other locations, online and via our mobile app.
Due to a systematic issue with real-time authorization, the ACH/Electronic Check payment feature has been temporarily removed from all DMV online and mobile app transactions. Our team is working with the Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) to resolve the matter. Contactless, credit/debit card, cash, and check payments continue to be accepted in person.
