Introduction
A MyDMV web account provides registered Users with secure and simplified access to use a variety of DMV’s on-line applications and services.
MyDMV was created by the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), in cooperation with the New York State Office of Information Technology Services.
In order to register for a MyDMV account, you must first select a Sign-In Username and Password and provide your identity information. Your Username, Password, and identity information are stored in a secure directory called the “NY.gov”, which is maintained by New York State Office of Information Technology Services.
Username and Password
When you register for a MyDMV account, you will be sent a temporary password by email. You must use the temporary password to complete the on-line registration process. After completing your registration, you can use your permanent Sign-In Username and Password for gaining access to MyDMV applications and services.
Upon validation of your identity, you will be permitted access to use DMV's secure web applications. This process is designed to protect the security of your identifying personal information. Your Sign-In Username and Password, and identifying personal information will be used solely for the purpose of NY.gov.
As an additional feature of NY.gov you can use the same Username and Password when you register to use secure web applications available at other New York State agencies that participate in NY.gov. After registering to gain access to use secure web applications at another NYS agency, you simply sign in using the same Username and Password.
Deactivation of NY.gov and MyDMV Accounts
For security purposes, the use of your MyDMV account is dependent upon validation of your identity by NY.gov. In the event that NY.gov deactivates access for any reason (e.g., unable to validate your identity), your MyDMV account will also be deactivated, and thereafter access to MyDMV applications and on-line services will be denied and the account will be locked.
Unlocking Accounts
In order to unlock your account you must contact NY.gov, as instructed, and provide the necessary information.
By registering for a MyDMV account you acknowledge and agree that:
