Kentucky KSP Services

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet handles all of the state’s driver and vehicle needs. The department handles driver and vehicle needs in circuit clerk offices, county clerk offices, and driver licensing regional offices. Most of the offices are open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m., but some keep different hours. In addition, some offices only accept cash payments, so reach out to your local office before moving forward. Otherwise, you could show up on the wrong day or have the wrong payment method with you.

One-Stop Shop

Kentucky is known for offering a One-Stop Shop. This shop provides all of the vehicle and driver services that you need, along with some complex services that aren’t available at other locations.

The One-Stop Shop accepts cash, company checks, money orders, and credit cards. If you want to pay with a credit card, you will need to pay with an American Express, Discover, MasterCard, or Visa.
