Mostly nice people. A lot of understanding for the hoops you have to jump through to do almost anything. A couple extremely rude and unhelpful people answering the phones though.

I love that you can get in line ONLINE. You can sign in on the Ohio BMV website to the location you want to go to. It saves time and you avoid long lines and long in person wait times. BMV on E Court St was very fast and helpful each time I went. Thanks!

Employees at this BMV are unable to think more than half a step ahead, making it infuriating to accomplish a simple task, which required me to speak to three different employees just to find a single piece of information. Otherwise an average facility.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

My driver's license was suspended where do I need to go to get them reinstated can they do it there or do I need to go to Seven Hills

Joe Mack | Nov 2, 2018
Mike Whitt | Nov 2, 2018

It depends on why it's suspended. You probably need to go to the Hamilton County Justice Center and ask one of the clerks there what you have to do in order to get your license back.

charlotte beasley | Nov 2, 2018

I'm pretty sure it's only like $12 for a identification card and $22 for a copy of your driver's license. I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure thats right.

I lost my I'd but it doesn't expire till 2018 what do I need to get a new one

Tone Moandms | Nov 2, 2017
Mike Whitt | Nov 2, 2018

Anytime I've had to get a new one I've needed mail with my name and current address that was sent to me. Social security card or I've even had them accept a document I got from court with my name and social on it. Also, your birth certificate. Basically you need mail, something with your name and social and another form of I.D. I've even had them except an old yearbook as a form of identification.

How much does it cost to renew my license

Bryan Sims | Oct 2, 2022
Nikhil Adlakha | Oct 2, 2022

It's mostly the same as getting your license issued. In my case, it was $27.5. But, you can probably get it for $25, if you don't have glasses.

Take your notorized title to the BMV. Look up on this site if u need to bring other documents with you. I think you just need the notorized title and your non expired license or state id. They will give u a new title in your name.
