JOHN DAY -- The Oregon DMV John Day office at 193 N. Canyon Blvd. is closed today due to staffing. View office closures in real time at Oregon DMV.

As the May 7 federal REAL ID deadline approaches, we are seeing greater demand at many DMV offices. Expect longer lines and longer wait times than normal. At busier offices, while getting your ticket, ask if you can provide your cell number to receive text notifications, allowing you to leave and return when your number gets closer.

You only need a REAL ID if you are 18 and older and will travel in the U.S. by plane after May 7 without a valid passport. If you aren’t flying soon, you can wait to get a REAL ID until it’s time to renew your credential or use a passport. If you don’t need a REAL ID, see if you can complete your service online at DMV2U or at one of our self-serve kiosks.
