Each state has different rules and regulations related to driver licensing and vehicle titling and registration. You can review these requirements by visiting any states department of motor vehicles Web sites.
Driver Licensing and ID Cards
- Contact your new state's driver licensing authority to find out how to obtain a new license or ID card. When you apply for a new license in another state, you will be asked to surrender your Oregon Driver License. The licensing authority will advise DMV that your Oregon License has been surrendered to that state.
- If you have a disabled parking placard (permit), you must return it to the Oregon DMV in person or by mail either before or immediately after you move.
- You are still responsible for any outstanding suspension and/or license revocations you may have on your record. If you have questions about your DMV record, you can request a copy of your record.
Vehicles
- Oregon law requires that you notify Oregon DMV of a
Change of Address within 30 days.
- Notify your insurance company of your move and provide them with your new address. If you wish to cancel your present insurance, do not do so until you obtain coverage from another insurance company.
- If your vehicle is leased, notify your leasing company.
- Vehicle inspection requirements vary from state to state, so be sure to contact the inspection authorities in your new state.
- Though it is not required, we encourage you to return your Oregon license plates by mail once you have re-registered your vehicle in another state. This will prevent fraudulent use of your plates and allow us to recycle the old license plates.
