DMV CLOSURES:  3/27 to 4/10

DPS-DVS is closing all exam stations statewide on Friday, March 27 at the close of business to follow Governor Tim Walz's executive order for Minnesotans to stay home and slow the spread of COVID-19. Offices will stay closed through Friday, April 10 when the executive order is set to expire.

Independently owned and operated deputy registrar and driver’s license agent offices that provide driver and vehicle services will also close during this time.

What you need to know:
• You cannot renew your driver’s license or ID cards during this time. Once it reaches his desk, Gov. Walz is expected to sign a bill passed by Minnesota legislature that includes an extension for Minnesotans whose driver's licenses or ID cards expire during this time.
• You can continue to renew your vehicle registration online or by mail.
