Address Changes

We do not accept any address changes by email. Address changes on Commercial Driver Licenses must be completed in person.

Why Is This Important?

Nevada law requires motorists to notify DMV of a change of address within 30 days of the move, including residents who are leaving the state permanently.

Keeping your address current with us is important as we mail your official documents and correspondence to the address we have on file, and USPS mail forwarding does not apply to DMV documents.

You may list separate mailing and residence addresses.

Registration Renewal

Use MyDMV if your vehicle registration is due and you must change your address. Create a MyDMV account, change your address and renew online in just a few simple steps.

Vehicle registration renewals completed through the Internet or emission inspection stations are sent to the address on record for the vehicle. The U.S. Postal Service will not forward the Registration Certificate and decal. A forwarding order with the Postal Service does not change your address with the DMV.

If your registration is due or expired, you may renew at a DMV kiosk and complete the address change afterward. You do not need a renewal notice to obtain an emission inspection or renew.

If you have already completed the renewal, you will have to apply for a substitute decal. You may change your address and order a duplicate through MyDMV.

You may also renew or obtain a substitute decal in person at any DMV office. See Renewal Options.

Real ID

As of May 7, 2025, the federal government will require your driver's license or ID card to be Real ID compliant if you wish to use it as identification to board an aircraft or enter federal facilities where ID is required.

If you have not upgraded to a Real ID, you may wish to visit a DMV office to change your address and upgrade at the same time. See the Real ID Act in Nevada for requirements.

A Real ID compliant license or ID must contain the holder's physical address on the face of the card, even if there is a separate mailing address.
