- Proof of new address (e.g. utility bill, lease agreement, or bank statement)
- Complete a change of address form:
- You can usually find the form on the DMV's website or pick one up in person at a DMV office.
- Fill out the form completely and accurately, including your old and new addresses.
- Submit the form:
- You can usually submit the form online, by mail, or in person at a DMV office.
- Make sure to sign the form and include any required documentation.

Note: The specific steps and requirements may vary depending on your state or locality, so it's a good idea to check with your local DMV for specific instructions.
Here are some additional tips:
- Make sure to update your address with the DMV as soon as possible to avoid any delays or issues with your driver's license or vehicle registration.
- If you're changing your address because you're moving to a new state, you'll need to update your address with the DMV in your new state as well.
- If you're a military service member or veteran, you may be able to update your address with the DMV through the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) or the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).
