Self-Service Kiosks
The Nevada DMV and private partners are pleased to offer self-service kiosks at many locations throughout the Silver State.
Kiosk transactions are simple and fast. Your records are updated instantly. The kiosk dispenses your registration and plate decal or driver history printout on the spot. Services are offered in English and Spanish with voice assistance.
Services offered on the kiosks are also available online or by mail. The choice is yours!
Pay by Cash, Check or Debit Card
There is no extra charge or 'convenience fee' for kiosk services. We encourage you to use cash, your check or the debit card for your checking account. This saves your taxpayer dollars through reduced fees. The kiosk will read your check and return it to you.
DMV also accepts major credit cards. And, no matter how you pay, your transaction is handled through industry-standard secure connections to ensure your privacy.
Kiosk Services
Registration Renewal
Kiosks will accept either the access code or bar code from your renewal notice or the license plate number and last 4 digits of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). You must complete a smog check first if one is required for your vehicle.
Bring your Evidence of Insurance card and driver's license in case you need to verify your insurance coverage. You can check this on our Registration and Insurance Status Inquiry.
Kiosks can process your registration renewal approximately 35 days before expiration and up to 18 months late.
Kiosk, Internet and emissions station renewals cannot process address changes, apply tax exemptions or use fee credits. Please mail your renewal if you want to use fee credits, a Veterans exemption or any other tax exemption.
Driver History Printout
You may obtain a three-year, school bus or ten-year driver history report for insurance or employment purposes. You will need information from your current driver's license to access this service.
See Driver History Reports for other options to get your own history. You may not use a kiosk to obtain another person's history. Nevada has very restrictive privacy laws regarding access by third parties. See Public Records Access.

The Kiosk Program
The Nevada DMV updated its kiosk program in the summer of 2008 with all new second-generation machines. New features on these kiosks included driver history printouts, payment by check and the ability to dispense coins as change.
The older style kiosks, pictured on the right, debuted in the spring of 2004. These machines and the kiosk program as a whole won five national awards in 2006.
Director Ginny Lewis was named "Industry Deployer of the Year" and the department's self-service kiosks took top honors for "Best Kiosk Application for Government, Education or a Non-Profit Agency" at the 2006 KioskCom Self-Service Expo in Las Vegas.
The kiosks also won the "Platinum Outstanding Achievement Award" and two other awards at Self Service World magazine's annual show in San Antonio, Texas.
The kiosks handle approximately 38,000 transactions per month. These are Nevada motorists who would otherwise be standing in line to be served by a department technician. Total kiosk transactions passed 1 million in November, 2008 and 2 million in March, 2011.
The DMV is currently developing a third generation of kiosks that are scheduled to be unveiled in the spring of 2012.
