Going to the DMV in Charlotte? These 4 locations will offer Saturday hours this summer

To prepare for a busy summer season, the N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles will resume Saturday hours at 16 driver’s license offices across the state, including four in the Charlotte area.

According to the NCDMV, services will be provided on Saturdays from June 3 through Aug. 6 from 8 a.m.-noon at the following area offices:

Currently, appointments are unavailable for all Charlotte-area locations, according to NCDMV’s online scheduler, meaning drivers will have to rely on walk-ins for their needed services.

Most services oNCDMV offers, such as driver’s license renewals and record requests, can be completed online.

However, some services require an in-person appointment, like getting a state license or ID for the first time, obtaining a Real ID, or making a name change, The Charlotte Observer reported.

In the future, residents can only make appointments in the mornings through 11 a.m. All services will be provided on a walk-in basis after 12 p.m.

You can also check how busy offices are on the NCDMV office locations webpage, which shows the current estimated wait times across the state.
