DMV Change of Address Oregon

To change your address with the Oregon DMV you must update your records within 30 days of moving. Residents can typically submit a change of address online through the DMV2U portal, by mail, or in person at a local DMV field office to ensure legal compliance.

Can I Change My Oregon Driver’s License Address Online?

Oregon allows residents to update their address online through the official DMV2U digital services portal. You will need your current driver license or ID card number and your social security number to access the system and verify your identity. This digital update changes your record but does not automatically trigger the delivery of a new physical card.

How to Update Your Address with the Oregon DMV (Driver and Motor Vehicle Services)

Updating your residency information with the Oregon DMV is a mandatory step for all drivers who relocate within the state. To maintain a valid driving record, you must notify the agency of your new physical and mailing address within the strictly enforced 30 day window. This process ensures that you receive essential documents, such as license renewal notices and vehicle registration information, without interruption. Depending on your preference for digital or traditional methods, Oregon provides three primary ways to complete this requirement.

Online Address Change

First you should navigate to the official DMV2U website and select the change of address option. Next you enter your personal identification details including your license number and the last four digits of your social security number. Finally you provide your new residential and mailing addresses and submit the electronic form to update the state database.

Change of Address by Mail

If you prefer to update your information by mail, you can download the official Change of Address form from the Oregon DOT website. You must fill out the form completely with your old and new information and mail it to the DMV headquarters address listed on the document. This method updates your record for both driver services and vehicle registration.

In-Person Address Update

You must visit a DMV office in person if you want a new physical license that displays your updated address. While an online or mail-in update changes your digital record, a physical replacement license requires an in-person application and payment. You should bring proof of your new residency if you are also applying for a REAL ID for the first time.

Direct Support

If you need assistance with your address update or have specific questions about your driving record, you can contact the Oregon DMV customer service line at 503-945-5000.

Fees and New License Card

There is no fee to simply update your address in the Oregon database through the online portal or by mail. However, if you want a physical replacement license that shows your new address, you must pay a fee of 26 dollars. This fee is required because the state must manufacture and mail a new secure credential to your home.

Schedule Your Visit

If you need to visit an office to get a new physical card, it is highly recommended that you book an Oregon DMV Appointment to avoid long wait times.
