SALEM -- Oregon DMV’s computer system will be unavailable later today through the Fourth of July weekend for an upgrade that will impact DMV2U and DMV Express Kiosks. All DMV services will return to normal at start of business Monday, July 6. 

Timeline and impacts  

  • DMV2U will be unavailable starting at 4 p.m. today.
  • DMV Express Kiosks will be unavailable starting at 8 p.m. today.
  • All DMV offices will be closed tomorrow in observance of the holiday.
  • DEQ clean air stations and DEQ Too locations will continue to conduct testing and provide emissions certificates tomorrow, but customers will not be able to renew their registration or tags until DMV’s system is back online Monday, July 6. Customers can then renew their registration and tags online at DMV2U or at a DMV Express Kiosk.

The system upgrade will keep DMV’s license issuance and vehicle registration system software current, ensuring we can integrate with partner systems and making it easier to adopt future updates to better serve our customers.

We apologize for any inconvenience. Visit our web page for updates.
