Made an appointment online and was able to have my apt 10m early. No wait time. The gal helped me troubleshoot an issue I wasn’t expecting (the issue was my fault)

I purchased a 1987 Yamaha 4x4 atv that has never been titled in Idaho. I have a dealer title that has never been processed. The previous owner signed it over to me with a bill of sale. What else do I need to get a title?

Go down to DMV and tell them what you have and they might just go ahead and title it. I had a dirt bike with no title and they helped me get it done. Your situation sounds a little bit better than what I had.

No, the only location that does licensing stuff is the "drivers license office" in Boise
No appointment is needed, but if you have the time to wait it helps. But if you go early in the morning like 7:30am and get in line, the first 15 people get to come in and get serviced. Otherwise you will be put on a wait list and they will call you when it's your turn. I showed up at 7:30 and was done by 9am.
What all do I need when registering a vehicle I just bought?

If you bought it from a dealer just the paper that was put in the back window, if you bought it from a private seller then you just need the bill of sale

No apt needed, bit if you make one you won't have to stand in line for, like, ever.
What all do I need to register my new truck from Utah?

Take it down to the DMV with Pink Slip or documents, they will verify the VIN and milage. They pay for registration. Plates take 2-3 months as of now, but you will get a temporary for your window.
I need to transfer my registration to my new vehicle and was curious when the cut off time was too stand in line? Is it possible to do this online? Also, does the vehicle have to be there?
Jennifer Cavazos | Oct 1, 2021
Steve Podbielan | Oct 1, 2021
It can be done online. If going in allow 2-3 hr wait. Probably less but be safe.
Yes. They charge a convenience fee, a couple bucks, to use a debit/credit. Listen to this, go online and make a APPOINTMENT if at all possible. With the covid thing, they only let in a certain amount of people -- no matter how early you get there. The wait is brutal. I waited 2 hours doing the very thing your asking about. Also they close at 4pm now. Apparently they upgraded to a shorter work day.
(Can anybody do this I wonder)
Don't call. You will be connected to a call center with many callers ahead of you.

We bought a house in Fruitland and I need a drivers license. Can I get my renewal now before we move in? We are currently staying at my daughters in Caldwell until we can move in.

You can't get your driver's license here. You have to go to the DMV on Emerald and Benjamin Ln. Or the one in Caldwell which would be the closest to you.

No, they do not do drivers licenses there. Just titles and registration.
The fees to renew your driver's license in Idaho will depend on your age and the length of the renewal. $30 for 4 years (21 years old and older). $55 for 8 years (21 to 62 years old).
