Great experience. I made an appointment, zero wait. Extremely helpful staff, friendly, efficient. Title and registration in 15 minutes!

I would give this DMV no stars if possible. I would recommend going to any other DMV in Virginia before this one. For a year, I was unable to get my car registered because every time I went in the employees (including management) said I needed different paperwork. I had probably 7 different appointments and each time I was told I needed something different from what I was told the last time. I spent almost a year going back and forth with them, my car title company, jumping through hoops for notarized documents and other “required” documents. Each time I asked “after I get this, is this all you’ll need from me?” To which EACH TIME they said “yes”. The last time I went and they told me they required “one more document” from my loan company and I was so frustrated I decided to go to another DMV all together. Yesterday I went to the DMV in Woodbridge and I wish I could go back to last year and start there. I handed the worker the packet of paper work I’ve accumulated over the past year and she looked through it and replied “I’m sorry but you don’t need ANY OF THIS.” And I was able to get my car registered and the title signed over to me right there. So the DMV in Arlington wasted a year of my time for no reason other than they don’t know how to do their jobs. I was charged late registration fees on my vehicle because they swore they couldn’t register it without 30 separate documents. Literally just go anywhere else. Any other DMV. Save yourself the headache.

Came here with my wife before closing on a Wednesday afternoon. Staff were friendly, knowledgeable, even made jokes with customers. Only complaint was they registered my car in the wrong county and I now have to deal with figuring out how to get it registered correctly. Otherwise, a shockingly good experience overall.

I am purchasing a vehicle in Massachusetts and driving it back to VA. Mass. doesn't require emissions on older cars (it's a 1997). I cannot driving it back with the existing plates. What are the steps I need to take to legally drive it back.

Lisa DiConsiglio | Oct 7, 2019
R Reyes | Oct 7, 2019

You will have to get temp tags from Massachusetts, then drive the vehicle here. Then re-register your vehicle here in VA. However, you will have to first pass an emissions test and bring that certification, title, and temp tags to a VA DMV to complete the registration. Once you have the title and tags transferred to VA, I would contact the Massachusetts DMV to notify them the vehicle is no longer in that state. There maybe a small property tax they will expect you to pay for the duration of time that vehicle was registered there under your ownership. They should let you know that. Btw...in Va you have a 30 day window to register any new vehicle, unless you're military. Different rules apply to military transfers.

I'm buying a vehicle in Ohio, but I'm a Virginia resident and I'm registering the car in VA. Can I get temporary tags to transport the vehicle from Ohio back to VA? Or is there anything else I can apply for?

Edwin Villalta | Oct 7, 2019
Jose Penaranda | Oct 7, 2019

You can obtain a Trip Permit from DMV (you can do it online). It is valid for 3 days and the cost is $5.00 if you already have insurance on the car, or $45.00 if the car is not insured.
