North Dakota DOT Information & Resources

North Dakota DOT Services

In North Dakota, the Office of Driver and Vehicle Services handles all of your motor vehicle and licensing needs. This office is a branch of the Department of Transportation, and it has different field departments available for your needs. Determine which department you need to visit and then you’ll be ready to get your license, title, or anything else that you need.

Driver’s License Site

If you need to get a driver’s license, you’ll need to visit one of the North Dakota Driver’s License Site locations. These sites handle everything related to driver’s licenses and ID cards. The sites are sprinkled around the state and have different hours of operation. They are also open on different days of the week. For instance, some sites are open Monday through Friday, while others are only open on the first Wednesday of the month. Check the schedule for your local office before visiting.

Schedule an Appointment at the Driver’s License Sites

You can use the online appointment scheduling feature to schedule an appointment before visiting your local Driver’s License Site. You can schedule an appointment for a driving test or to get your driver’s license by using the online scheduler. Then, you won’t have to wait around at the DMV.

North Dakota Motor Vehicle Sites

If you need to get a tag, title, or registration, you’ll need to visit one of the North Dakota Motor Vehicle Site locations. Unlike the Driver’s License Site locations, the Motor Vehicle Site locations typically keep regular business hours. However, the hours do vary slightly from one location to the next. For instance, some are only open until noon on Fridays. Check with your location before going to the office so you don’t encounter any surprises.

Contacting the North Dakota Office of Driver and Vehicle Services

While most DOT centers in North Dakota close at 5pm, we encourage you to visit earlier during hours of operation to be sure you get the help you need.
