DMV Document Guide

DMV has guides to help you find the identity proof documents you need!

Be Prepared for Your DMV Visit

Complete a pre-screening to ensure that you have the proofs of identification and other documents you need before you register and/or title a vehicle; apply for a learner permit, non-driver ID, or commercial driver license (CDL); exchange my out-of-state license; or make a change to your New York State license, permit, or non-driver ID.

Complete a Pre-Screening
