CHARLESTON, WV-
The West
Virginia Division of Motor Vehicles announced today that customers may
visit any of the 57 local license service agencies across the
state that are currently open to do title work and obtain temporary
license plates and registrations. With the continued closure of all
Regional Offices due to COVID-19 and best practice recommendations, DMV
has been processing title work and issuing registrations and license
plates through the mail.
According to DMV Commissioner Everett Frazier, “We recognize that our
customers need to be able to drive to get to work and take care of their
families. In an effort to expedite the titling and temporary registration
and license plate process, to assist customers who are purchasing
vehicles via the person-to-person route, we are publishing a list of
available license services across the state on our website, dmv.wv.gov.”
Additionally, Commissioner Frazier continues to encourage customers to
take advantage of online services, including driver's license and vehicle
registration renewals.
"DMV employees are working diligently behind the scenes to process
transactions as efficiently as possible, and to continue to think of ways
to assist customers and improve customer service," he said.
"We are excited to offer this list of license service locations
to help those customers that need to be able to do titling and
registration transactions quickly."
