What documents do I need to bring to the DMV to register a vehicle?

Asked 6 months ago
To register a vehicle at the Illinois Vehicle Services Department (DMV/RMV), you will need to bring several necessary documents. Firstly, you must provide a valid and current Illinois driver's license or identification card as proof of identity. Additionally, the vehicle's title must be available, showing ownership, and containing accurate details such as odometer reading and lienholder information if applicable. Proof of valid auto insurance is crucial, along with the vehicle's current and valid registration card or renewal notice. Additionally, you must provide a completed Application for Vehicle Transaction form and pay the appropriate fees. It's advisable to bring payment in the form of cash, check, or money order, as some locations may not accept credit or debit cards. Bring copies of all these documents to ensure a smooth registration process at the DMV.
