In addition to these alternatives, the DMV is promoting its paperless options for vehicle registration and driver’s license renewal notices. To opt-in for these paperless notices, customers are required to sign in or create a secure online account at dmv.ca.gov and select the paperless option.
The temporary closure of the Davis DMV office underscores the department's commitment to maintaining and upgrading its facilities to better serve the public.
