DMV

The California Department of Motor Vehicles operates dmv.ca.gov as the official state agency site for vehicle and driver services in California. It serves California residents, new movers, business owners, and commercial drivers who need to manage licensing, registration, and identification matters. Core functions include driver's license and identification card applications and renewals, vehicle registration and title transfers, and scheduling appointments at field offices. The site also provides access to driving test scheduling, traffic violation and point information, disabled person placards, and specialized services for commercial and motorcycle licensing. Additional resources cover vehicle industry regulation, occupational licensing for dealers and driving schools, and online tools for fee calculation, form downloads, and REAL ID compliance.
