Appointments in Arizona

At this time, the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) does not offer any online scheduling services. Keep in mind not all tasks require an in-person visit to a branch office; find out which online services you can take care of from your own computer.
Schedule a Driver's License Test Appointment by Phone
When applying for an Arizona driver's license, you can schedule an appointment for road or written tests by phone. Simply call your nearest branch during office hours.
Schedule a CDL Appointment
Those applying for an AZ commercial driver's license (CDL) can test at either an MVD CDL office or at an authorized third-party office. If you choose to test through the state, be aware some MVD offices require applicants to make an appointment for the road/skills test. Certain state offices might also require applicants to make an appointment to retake the written test if they don't pass, or if they're transferring a CDL from another state. Check with a particular branch using our ADOT office finder.
If you're applying for a CDL at an office outside of the Phoenix and Tucson metro areas, you must certainly schedule an appointment to take the knowledge test.
Suggested Times to Visit ADOT
