New Cost-Cutting DMV Service –- "MyDMV" to Renew Vehicle Decals and Registration

Governor Bob McDonnell last week announced that Virginians can now sign up with "myDMV" to receive state vehicle registration renewal notices through e-mail or phone, rather than getting a paper reminder in the mail. Currently, the paper renewal notice that DMV mails is a courtesy reminder for our customers. The annual cost of printing and mailing approximately 5.3 million paper renewal notices is $2.4 million. Use of automated renewal notices provides added convenience for DMV customers while saving printing and postage costs.

Called "myDMV," you can sign up for a DMV account at www.dmvNOW.com/myDMV. Using a personal identification number (PIN), customers opt to receive reminders via e-mail or phone, and can manage their DMV records without visiting an office.

With a "myDMV" PIN, you can conduct a variety of secure transactions such as renewing driver's licenses or ID cards, and obtain information specific to them, such as your driving record.
