COVID-19 Notice for DMV Customers

DMV has increased online services to provide even more ways for Alaskans to safely conduct business during the COVID-19 pandemic. With this increase, all DMV transactions must be done remotely with the exception of Real IDs, original driver licenses or IDs and a select few identity renewals that cannot be done online. All other transactions must be done online or through the mail.

To reduce the requirements on Alaskans while they navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Dunleavy has suspended a number of laws. These actions include automatically extending Alaska's driver license expiration dates until the end of the disaster declaration, suspending the requirement that non-residents acquire an Alaskan driver's license and suspending the requirement that the new owner of a vehicle title and register a vehicle in their name within 30 days of new ownership. The disaster order can be read here
