 Department of Motor Vehicles

OFFICIAL FORM(S) REQUIRED:
• State Specific

   Your drivers license and automobile registration both need amendment. For a name change you will need to go in person to your local branch office of the Department of Motor Vehicles to submit your forms. The forms are usually located just inside the door as you enter. For address changes some states allow you to make the change by mail. Check the links below to see if you can get the forms online.

   Most states require two forms of identification such as a certified copy of your marriage license and your current drivers license. A certified copy of your birth certificate and a U.S. Passport are two other types of proof of identity everyone accepts without question. The official forms contain detailed instructions. To save yourself some time be aware that often you will have the opportunity to make your voter registration changes on forms supplied by the Department of Motor Vehicles.

   Having discussed your license and vehicle registration there is one more area. Your vehicle's title. The name on your title usually cannot be changed. The same is true of any address change as it appears on your title. A new title will only be issued upon transfer of ownership. But remember, when you sell the vehicle that is in your maiden name, assign the title with your married name and also your maiden name.

   Many states have resources on the internet that can help those changing their name and/or address. to obtain the necessary forms and information on-line.

   Here are the links for getting a new driver's license and registering your vehicle. Remember, information on the web is not uniform. Some states offer online registration and information with translations in several languages, while other states provide a phone number or other information where you may learn about hours, fees and locations of motor vehicle offices.
