  • Customers who have purchased a vehicle from a private party with a lien holder.
  • New residents to Nevada who have not yet registered their vehicle in the state.

See more information on Rapid Registration here.

Make An Appointment.

Walk-in services are suspended in our metro offices. In order to accommodate customers who would usually visit on Wednesdays, the five offices will open their books for Wednesday appointments on Tuesday nights at 8pm.

If your transaction can't be completed online, book an appointment at one of our offices in Carson City, Henderson, Las Vegas, or Reno. If there isn't anything available to meet your needs, check back as people cancel all the time and new appointments open up.

Other Nevada DMV offices do not require appointments. County offices that handle DMV transactions may be subject to different availability. Remember: If you don't need your appointment, please cancel it so someone else can use it.
