Reminder: BMV Fees To Resume Wednesday

Posted
INDIANAPOLIS — The Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) reminds Hoosiers administrative penalty fees (late fees) will resume Wednesday. All Hoosiers with expired driver’s licenses, permits, state identification cards and vehicle registrations need to complete renewal transactions before Wednesday to avoid paying an administrative penalty fee. Title transactions and new vehicle registrations must also be completed before Wednesday.

Administrative penalty fees were waived early in the COVID-19 public health emergency to aid Hoosiers and support the state’s efforts to limit the spread of the virus.

The BMV resumed walk-in service on June 15. Hoosiers can complete all transactions in a branch, with the exception of driving skills exams. Beginning in early July, individuals who had a driving skill exam cancelled due to the public health emergency will be contacted to reschedule. The BMV anticipates opening new appointments for driving skills exams in late July.

Hoosiers are encouraged to complete transactions online through myBMV whenever possible. Individuals may also visit a BMV Connect kiosk, call the contact center, or return registration renewals through USPS using preprinted forms. You can read a full list of modifications, closures, and available services on its website in.gov/BMV.
