Going to DDS In Person
Once you have filled out the license/ID/permit form, it is good for 60 days, and you will NOT have to fill it out again if you need to reschedule your meeting during that time.
Georgia DMV Online Services
The GA DDS allows residents to complete many tasks without needing to visit a DDS office. Many tasks can be performed online, including:
- Renewing a license or ID.
- Ordering a duplicate ID.
- Renewing a vehicle registration.
- Requesting a replacement registration.
- Pay reinstatement fees.
Best Times to Visit the GA DMV
Sometimes you won’t be able to complete your business online and will need to visit your local DDS office. To save time, consider avoiding:
- The first and last days of the month. These days tend to be crowded.
- Mondays and Fridays. The middle of the week is generally less busy.
- Days immediately before or after holidays.
- The lunch hours and evenings. If you can’t help visiting in the evening, be sure you give yourself enough time before closing to complete your transaction.
