DMV Openings Get notified

Any appointment the DMV books online.

15 appointment types across four groups, named the way the California DMV names them. Pick the one you need when you create your request, and we watch for it at the offices you choose.

Drive tests are the scarcest and the most time-sensitive, which is why they lead the home page. Office visits are the most common reason people come to us.
