Montana Local DMV Office FAQs

1. How do I renew my Montana driver’s license?

Montana offers both online and in-person renewal options. If you meet the eligibility requirements—such as holding a valid, unexpired license with no significant changes to your personal information—you can renew online via the Montana Motor Vehicle Division website. Otherwise, you should visit a local DMV office with your current license and required identification documents; in-person renewals may include a vision test.

2. What documents are required to register a vehicle in Montana?

To register your vehicle in Montana, you must prove ownership by providing the vehicle title or, if the vehicle is coming from another state, a bill of sale. In addition, you’ll need to complete the registration application, provide proof of valid Montana auto insurance, and submit documentation verifying your residency—typically through a utility bill or lease agreement. Depending on your vehicle’s history or if it was purchased out-of-state, additional inspections or supporting documents may also be required.

3. How do I transfer my out‑of‑state driver’s license to Montana?

New Montana residents are required to obtain a Montana driver’s license within 90 days of establishing residency. To complete the transfer, visit a local DMV office with your current out‑of‑state license, acceptable proof of identity (such as a passport or birth certificate), your Social Security documentation, and two documents verifying your Montana residency. A vision test is generally required, and if your out‑of‑state license is expired or nearly expired, additional testing may be necessary.
