It’s sad that nobody wants to answer their phones when it comes to either new drivers or recent drivers who want to either get a drivers license or renew their license

Awful and very unprofessional staff. We drove from Fernley on Wednesday to find the office unexpectedly closed. We tried, again, on Friday and they weren't taking anymore numbers. We wait a week, come in hours before they close and they still aren't taking anymore customers. I guess your best bet is to get there right when they open and pray. You can't reach anyone by phone either. Do better or offer more services online.

Nope, you have to go in as you no longer have plates. Take all your info with you, its usually a quick trip.

Can I register a 2020 motorhome at the Fallon office? I purchased from a private party here in Nevada and I live in Reno. I have the title and proof of insurance. Will I need a smog test?

Steven Sweet | Oct 2, 2022
Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles | Oct 2, 2022

If my registration renewal is late like 5 days or a week will DMV still take the tribal taxes off of the amount and how much would late fees be on each day

September | Oct 2, 2022
Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles | Oct 2, 2022

Yes, you can still file the tribal exemption if you're late. The amount of the late fees depends on the amount of your registration. You have to pay all of the past-due fees plus penalties, which will be pretty small if you're only a week late.

do I need an appointment to renew my drivers license in Fallon if I live in Dayton?

Kitty Ziegler | Oct 2, 2022
Dori Goetze | Oct 2, 2022

There was several people that had appts. mostly for the driving test. I just walked in and picked a number and waited til it was my turn..I was there for about an hour and a 1/2, but once I got up to the counter it took about 5 minutes to get a new title. I needed my new title ASAP and they did a Fed-Ex overnight and it costs $68. I ordered my new title on Monday and recieved it on Wednesday...the best $68 I've ever spent. I was impressed and shocked on how fast they got my new title to me... It usually takes longer then expected...THANK YOU FALLON DMV...YOU GUYS ROCK!!

Do you have to schedule the driver's test or do you do walk ins? I have a 21 year old who i was teaching that took her first test over 3 weeks ago in Reno and isn't scheduled for her re-test til July 29th and hoping this would be faster.

kelly McKiddie | Jul 4, 2022
Rita B | Jul 4, 2022

You will have to call them and ask. Plz let them know you are from Reno. I don't know why residency would matter as it's a fed dept, but better safe than sorry. Hope this helps.

You can send an email to ask for the status of the mailing. https://dmvnv.com/contact_us.asp You can also print a driver history to show you have a valid license, though there is no guarantee that anyone will accept it. https://dmvapp.nv.gov/dmv/dl/OL_DH/Drvr_Usr_Info.aspx Please note the post office will return a license if the carrier doesn't know you live there. Have you received other mail there? Also, licenses are not forwarded.

Charles Hauck | Nov 2, 2019

I do not believe so. I believe the minimum age is 18 to be legal owner. Insurance will be cheaper on a family policy for him than to be on his own policy.

If you are male; birth certificate or adoption paperwork, Social Security card, proof of current address (es) [If your mailing address is different than your home address], your driver's license from the other state. If you are female; all of the above + proof of how you got from maiden name to current name (for me, that meant 2 marriage licences.
