Change Your Address with the AZ MVD

If you hold an Arizona driver's license or ID card and recently moved to a new address, you must notify the AZ MVD within 10 days. When you make the change of address with the MVD, both your driver's license and vehicle records will be updated.

NOTE: Changing your name with the AZ MVD will update your records only. If you'd like updated documents (i.e. driver's license, registration etc.) see "Request Updated License/Registration/Title" below.

You can change your address with the Arizona MVD online, by phone, or in person at your local AZ MVD branch office.
