MyDMV accounts now house a multi-car garage for all your vehicle information

Sacramento – The California DMV now offers an improved online customer experience that is faster, easier and can be personalized. Once signed in to a MyDMV account, all of an individual’s driver’s license and vehicle related information is now contained in one location.

“We’re streamlining the way Californians interact with us online,” said DMV Director Steve Gordon. “The revamped MyDMV account is designed to simplify services, so you spend less time taking care of DMV business and more time doing the things you enjoy.”

The new MyDMV account not only allows for easy renewal of your driver’s license and checking its status, but also offers choices on how to receive important DMV information – including making it easier to sign up for paperless renewal notices. MyDMV offers an easier and more convenient process for updating an address, changing the name or gender designation on your driver’s license, and ordering a replacement driver’s license.

MyDMV offers a “Garage” feature that allows customers to park and manage all vehicle and boat information, renew registration, and check processing status in one convenient place.

Before Going to an Office – Try Online First!

The DMV has taken many steps to improve efficiencies and offer more digital services. Most DMV tasks do not require an office visit. The DMV encourages customers to use its online services and other service channels to complete transactions, including eligible driver’s license and vehicle registration renewals. Customers can also use the Service Advisor on the DMV website to learn their options to complete DMV tasks.
