North Dakota Local DMV Office FAQs

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

North Dakota offers an online renewal option for eligible drivers with an unexpired license and no significant changes to their personal information. If you don’t qualify for online renewal, you must visit a local DMV office with your current license and the required proof of identity and residency. In‑person renewals typically include a vision test.

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

To register your vehicle in North Dakota, you must show proof of ownership—usually your vehicle title or, if transferring from another state, your out‑of‑state registration and bill of sale—along with a completed registration application. You also need to provide proof of valid North Dakota auto insurance and documentation confirming your residency, such as a utility bill or lease agreement. Depending on your vehicle’s specifics, additional inspections or a VIN verification may be required.

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

New residents must obtain a North Dakota driver’s license within 60 days of establishing residency. To transfer your out‑of‑state license, visit your local DMV office with your current license, acceptable proof of identity (for example, a passport or birth certificate), your Social Security documentation, and two documents verifying your North Dakota residency. A vision test is generally required, and if your out‑of‑state license is expired or nearly expired, additional testing may be necessary.
